External Email - Use Caution
To whom this may concern and can help,
I am currently trying to run Freeview under the Windows Subsystem Linux
System. I can successfully download and open images, but nothing seems to
be showing on my end (see image attached at the end).
In order to find out what is preventing the X-server from correctly
displaying graphics, I have tried to run the $ xeyes command and the eyes
pop up, meaning that the X-windows server is working fine.
Upon checking the WSL Version, I am currently using the WSL version 2.
I have entered the two commands as follows:
$ *echo "export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=$HOME/.xdg" >> $HOME/.bashrc*
$ *echo "export DISPLAY=:0" >> $HOME/.bashrc*
Then I exited Ubuntu, and tried to run freeview again (attempting to open a
data file T1.mgz.) This still did not produce any image in freeview,
although it opened it up. I tried changing the window, contrast, and
brightness but to no avail.
Is there another solution?
Terribly sorry and thank you so much for your time.
Sincerely,
Justina
