Description
OS: fedora 35 Silverblue
Graphics: Intel iRIS Xe
MeshLab version: 2021.10 (updated 2021-12-22 18:24:47 +0000)

Starting the application results in a transparent client area (you can see the desktop background) and the X11 fallback doesn't seem to work.
Settings|About for my OS shows that Wayland Session is active. Disabling Wayland with Flatseal permits the application to start as it previously did.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the transparent client area on Fedora 35 Silverblue with a Wayland session enabled, then compare behavior when Wayland is disabled through Flatseal. Done means MeshLab starts with a visible client area under Wayland and the X11 fallback works when applicable.
