Cosmic Apps using wgpu fail with Nvidia graphics. #264

@XV-02

Description

@XV-02

I stumbled on this while testing both Cosmic-Edit and Cosmic-Term, on a System76 Gaze17 and a Galp5-1650ti.

Both applications functioned as expected in Pop with Gnome sessions (both X org and Wayland) in all three graphics modes provided by system76-power - Integrated, Hybrid, and Discrete.

In a Cosmic session, the applications work as expected in Integrated graphics mode. However, in both Hybrid and Discrete mode they both cause a window to be drawn, but are totally non-responsive. The only way to close the window is to manually terminate the process.

After back-and-forth with others, it was suggested that the issue might be wgpu. When both Cosmic-Edit and Cosmic-Term were compiled with the wgpu feature disabled, they functioned without issue in Cosmic session in all graphics modes.

I'm not sure of next-steps for finding debug information, and would appreciate guidance to collect info for this issue.
