fresh wsl install running pixi run rerun
off main I get a similar, but not identical error:
Error: winit EventLoopError: os error at /home/andreas/.cargo/registry/src/index.crates.io-6f17d22bba15001f/winit-0.29.15/src/platform_impl/linux/wayland/event_loop/mod.rs:80: The wayland library could not be loaded
Running WAYLAND_DISPLAY= pixi run rerun
gives me
Error: winit EventLoopError: the requested operation is not supported by Winit
After that I realized I didn't install any of the packages we ask linux users to install on https://rerun.io/docs/getting-started/troubleshooting (pretty bad user experience that this isn't printed :/)
Once done, I can no longer repro the issue at all and pixi run rerun
just works Oo (restarted the terminal to be sure the env var didn't change for the session).
Can you check what happens when you go through the dependencies on our troubleshooting page if you haven't already?
On WSL2, the native viewer crashes immediately on launch with "Could not find wayland compositor".

The documented workaround of setting
WAYLAND_DISPLAY=
works, but we could at least try to improve the error message.Tested on both rerun
0.16.1
and latestmain
.System information
Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL2) Build: 19045 Branch: vb_release Release: Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS Kernel: Linux 5.15.153.1-microsoft-standard-WSL2
What are we supposed to set WAYLAND_DISPLAY=
to? Where is this documented workaround? I'm running Ubuntu 24.04 LTS which is using the same kernel as your setup, and I got the same os error.
It's documented in our troubleshooting guide: https://rerun.io/docs/getting-started/troubleshooting#wsl2
