X-11 problem #320

Typo in your command in the app name. It should be sudo apt install x11-apps -y not sudo apt install x-11 apps -y.

I assume you mean the W10 start menu. Well, they ain't there. It just says 'Ubuntu'. No apps.

Try running export DISPLAY=:0 first before launching the apps.

Which Windows build are you running? (winver.exe) Which Linux kernel? (uname -a)

ntrp commented 3 years ago

I have the same issue.. my system versions: Windows: 21390.2025 WSL: Arch linux - Linux DESKTOP-2BD1RG8 5.10.16.3-microsoft-standard-WSL2 #1 SMP Fri Apr 2 22:23:49 UTC 2021 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I just verified that on Ubuntu works, anyway I can debug the reason and fix the problem?

KeiichiroKOIWAI commented 3 years ago

I also have the same trouble Windows OS: 21390.2025 WSL: Linux KOIWAI-AH5 5.10.16.3-microsoft-standard-WSL2 #1 SMP Fri Apr 2 22:23:49 UTC 2021 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

onomatopellan commented 3 years ago

Please post the output of these:

cat /mnt/wslg/versions.txt

echo $DISPLAY

ls -la /tmp/.X11-unix

ls -la /tmp/.X11-unix/
ntrp commented 3 years ago

In my case this part from the troubleshooting guide fixed it:

sudo rm -r /tmp/.X11-unix
ln -s /mnt/wslg/.X11-unix /tmp/.X11-unix

I guess it's something that comes out of the box with the default distros..

KeiichiroKOIWAI commented 3 years ago

Thank you for replying, these are the outputs.

I tried ntrp's suggestion, but not worked.

cat /mnt/wslg/versions.txt No such file or directory

echo $DISPLAY :0.0

ls -la /tmp/.X11-unix lrwxrwxrwx 1 koiwai koiwai 19 Jun 23 21:55 /tmp/.X11-unix -> /mnt/wslg/.X11-unix

ls -la /tmp/.X11-unix/ ls: cannot access '/tmp/.X11-unix/': No such file or directory

KeiichiroKOIWAI commented 3 years ago

I'm not sure why "version.txt" was removed😢

onomatopellan commented 3 years ago

@KeiichiroKOIWAI only versions.txt? What's the output of ls -la /mnt/wslg ?

KeiichiroKOIWAI commented 3 years ago

@onomatopellan

ls -la /mnt/wslg total 8 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jun 11 17:17 . drwxr-xr-x 9 root root 4096 Jun 11 17:17 ..

ntrp commented 3 years ago

did you run wsl --update? Also did you install WSL compatible drivers in Windows?

KeiichiroKOIWAI commented 3 years ago

@ntrp Yes, I did update. and also using the latest Nvidia's driver...

ntrp commented 3 years ago

The one from here? https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda/wsl

Last thing that comes to mind this you properly restart and/or ran wsl --shutdown?

KeiichiroKOIWAI commented 3 years ago

@onomatopellan I found Windows Subsystem for Linux WSLg Preview v1.0.22 on the Add/Remove Program. Ok, I will remove it, then try wsl.exe --update again!

This is late due to the time difference, so I'll try tomorrow! Thank you very much.

KeiichiroKOIWAI commented 3 years ago

@ntrp Thx, I followed these completely! Even "nvidia-smi" is working.

@onomatopellan I tried re-installed using ```wsl --update"" but it installed v1.0.22 again... I will manually install wslg tomorrow, thx.

hideyukn88 commented 3 years ago

@KeiichiroKOIWAI, have you installed any other X server solution on this distro? given DISPLAY is set to what WSLg doesn't. thanks for trying out WSLg!

echo $DISPLAY :0.0

KeiichiroKOIWAI commented 3 years ago

@hideyukn88 Thank you for your comments. I set DISPLAY manually. When I open WSL, echo $DISPLAY sows nothing.

hideyukn88 commented 3 years ago

@KeiichiroKOIWAI, given you don't see versions.txt either, have you installed WSLg ? or it might be disabled by .wslconfig? thanks!

KeiichiroKOIWAI commented 3 years ago

@hideyukn88 Wao, accidentally .wslconfig's GUI option was set to false..... When it turns true, everything goes well.

Thank you everyone, sorry for disturbing you with such an easy problem...

hideyukn88 commented 3 years ago

@KeiichiroKOIWAI, no problem, thanks for trying out WSLg!

bayvista170 commented 3 years ago

Thanks everyone. When I went back to the beginning, I found out that I had missed a step - Now all is working fine. Congrats to the MS Team - a job well done
