Kitty doesn't launch #3

Closed y0moGh closed 1 year ago

y0moGh commented 1 year ago

If I do either win + enter or I try to open it from the win + d menu, nothing happens. Kitty launches only if I execute the command 'kitty' from another terminal and only because I added export "LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=true" to the .zshrc file (before doing that I got an error).

I also tried editing the keyboard hotkeys from settings, assigning win + enter to the kitty command but it didn't worked.

Thanks

It's rare that this happens. Did you install it on a clean Kali Linux system? If not, I suggest uninstalling and reinstalling Kitty.

This is the key combination defined in the sxhkdrc file to execute Kitty:

super + Return
        /usr/bin/kitty

As you can see, the absolute path is /usr/bin/kitty. Make sure that yours is the same. If it's not, modify the sxhkdrc file with the correct path.

No, I didn't installed it on a clean Kali because I have everything there. Kitty's absolute path is /usr/bin/kitty and the sxhkdrc file is correct. What should I do?

I just remembered that I initially had the same issue on my virtual machine with VMware, and I resolved it by disabling the "Accelerate 3D graphics" option.

If you're using a virtual machine in VMware, you might want to give this a try.
