🐞 Bug gui apps seem to not work, sommelier also doesn't start correctly.

[spaceguy47-2]

Describe the bug Any apps that use gui either refuse to launch, or in the case of minecraft start to launch but crash before it shows anything.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Please indicate where the command(s) were executed.

My environment was: crosh shell

2. I executed the command(s) below:

     # minecraft-launcher

   Output:

      [0715/105418.644560:ERROR:ozone_platform_x11.cc(234)] Missing X server or $DISPLAY
      [0715/105418.645606:ERROR:env.cc(225)] The platform failed to initialize.  Exiting.

      OK

      [0715/105459.839580:ERROR:env.cc(225)] The platform failed to initialize.  Exiting.

3. I then tried:

     # restartsommelier

   Output:

      Sommelier can use direct scaling.
      Sommelier SCALE is set to .5.
      SCALE may be manually set in /usr/local/.config/.sommelier.env .
      some sommelier processes failed to start
      sommelier processes running:
        20642 /usr/local/bin/../lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 --library-path /usr/local/bin/../lib64 --inhibit-rpath  /usr/local/bin/sommelier.elf -X --x-display= --scale=.5 --direct-scale --glamor --force-drm-device=/dev/dri/renderD128 --display=wayland-0 --xwayland-path=/usr/local/bin/Xwayland --xwayland-gl-driver-path=/usr/local/lib64/dri --peer-cmd-prefix=/usr/local/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 --noop-driver --no-exit-with-child /bin/sh -c xauth generate . trusted

Expected behavior When I try to launch minecraft, it should succeed, and sommelier should fully start.

Try the following:

crew reinstall sommelier -s
restartsommelier

[spaceguy47-2]

didn't work

sommelier: Sommelier works by redirecting X11 programs to the built-in ChromeOS Exo Wayland server.

Try yes | crew install llvm18_dev py3_markupsafe py3_jinja2 first...

[spaceguy47-2]

still same issue, sommelier also still says that some processes failed to start.

[uberhacker]

What is the output of tail /usr/local/var/log/sommelier.log?

[spaceguy47-2]

[uberhacker]

It appears you don't have a display set. Does echo $DISPLAY output anything? If not, try export DISPLAY=:0 and restartsommelier.

[spaceguy47-2]

holy crap it worked, thank you so much.
