Hello,
I’m sorry to hear you’re experiencing issues with a transparent window when starting Torizon on WSL. Let’s try a few steps to resolve this:
-
Verify WSLg Installation: Ensure that WSLg is properly installed and configured, as it handles GUI applications in WSL2. You can check the version by running
wsl --versionand confirm it matches your expectations. -
Check Display Server Settings: Sometimes, the display server settings might need adjustment. Try setting the
DISPLAYenvironment variable manually in your WSL terminal:export DISPLAY=$(cat /etc/resolv.conf | grep nameserver | awk '{print $2}'):0 -
Update WSL and Windows: Ensure both your Windows OS and WSL are up to date, as updates can improve WSLg functionality.
-
Reinstall Torizon Extension: If the issue persists, consider reinstalling the Torizon extension in Visual Studio Code. Make sure to install it on the Windows side, not within WSL.
-
Check VSCode Logs: Open the Developer Tools in VSCode (Help > Toggle Developer Tools) and review the console for any error messages that might provide more insight.
-
Test with a Simple GUI Application: To determine if the issue is specific to Torizon, try running a simple GUI application like
xclockorgeditin WSL2 to see if they display correctly.
I hope these steps help you resolve the issue. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask.
Best regards,
