External Email - Use Caution        

Hi  Ruopeng,

I tried to run the glxgears command in the WSL Ubuntu subsystem, but it doesn't show me the gears. I am having the same issue as this thread linked here: MailScanner has detected a possible fraud attempt from "secure-web.cisco.com" claiming to be https://github.com/microsoft/wslg/issues/654. I followed the advice and downloaded the latest Intel Graphics Driver, but this did not seem to fix the issue for me. 

I also looked at the corresponding debian package installer in accordance with my ubuntu version, and the same error occurs. How can I add a 3D accelerator or GPU acceleration so that the glxgears command can show me the gears?

Thanks for your help and time.

Sincerely,
Justina

Are you able to run glxgears command? Do you see spinning gears?

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
