Description
- [ yes] I am on the latest Hyper.app version
- [ yes] I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate
-
OS version and name: <Ubuntu 22.04 LTS>
-
Hyper.app version: <3.3.0_amd64>
-
Link of a Gist with the contents of your .hyper.js:
After running hyper only the content inside the figure, no .hyper.js

-
Relevant information from devtools (CMD+ALT+I on macOS, CTRL+SHIFT+I elsewhere):
-
The issue is reproducible in vanilla Hyper.app:
Issue
sudo dpkg -i hyper_3.3.0_amd64.deb
hyper
No hyper's interface is displayed, which means the startup failed.
hyper -v
A JavaScript error occurred in the main process

Research direction
Reproduce the startup failure with the supplied dpkg and hyper commands, then inspect the configuration paths shown in the stack trace: config/init.js, config/import.js, and config.js. Determine why configuration loading reports that module.exports is unset, and verify that Hyper starts successfully on Ubuntu 22.04 without the reported exception.
