zed hanging on startup because of 'unsupportedversion'

Describe the bug / provide steps to reproduce it

I installed the 'linux' zed release. If I run it, it just appears to hang.

If I run with --foreground, I get:

thread 'main' panicked at crates/gpui/src/platform/linux/wayland/client.rs:143:51:
called `Result::unwrap()` on an `Err` value: UnsupportedVersion
note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace

Environment

WSL2, running Ubuntu 23.10. I can run other programs, such as 'firefox' and 'xterm', so the problem is not that I just can't run GUI programs inside WSL2

If applicable, add mockups / screenshots to help explain present your vision of the feature

No response

If applicable, attach your Zed.log file to this issue.

ChrisJefferson avatar Jul 11 '24 01:07 ChrisJefferson

I have just installed Zed as instructed in the downloads page, via the script:

curl https://zed.dev/install.sh | sh

I'm using Ubuntu 24.04 LTS and it's a regular installation, so not running anything via WSL.

I'm probably getting the same error as @ChrisJefferson, but the message says NoSupportedDeviceFound when I try to open the application. The message is shown in the system notifications tray.

I tried to find zed.log file, but it can't be found anywhere in my computer.

gpmarchi avatar Jul 11 '24 01:07 gpmarchi

I managed to get zed running with the following command:

unset WAYLAND_DISPLAY; zed

This forces zed to not use wayland.

The resulting zed still doesn't work on my machine (the gui doesn't render), but it doesn't crash. This may be helpful for other people, as a test.

ChrisJefferson avatar Jul 11 '24 02:07 ChrisJefferson

More info on hopefully the same issue:

Seeing the same results as people above, except I'm on Ubuntu 22.04.04.

After running unset WAYLAND_DISPLAY; zed, I got the error:

[2024-07-10T20:52:20-07:00 ERROR blade_graphics::hal::init] Missing Vulkan entry points: LibraryLoadFailure(DlOpen { desc: "libvulkan.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" })

Running sudo apt-get install libvulkan-dev gets me past the above error. However, zed ends up rendering a frame and working titlebar, but an empty window. (Setting WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-0 sends me back to UnsupportedVersion)

image

The above image might be helpful. I can hover over the WYSIWYG header button through the zed gui. The mouse pointer changes to a zed provided one when over the titlebar, but changes back to the Windows provided elsewhere.

I will also mention zed did used to work on my machine, I tried it during development.

I just did a git bisect, and the x11 gui broke in commit 47aa761ca9dee79852056897090480ff7f5ba7a9 . That commit did make a lot of changes, and I have no idea how x11 works, so I can't usefully debug beyond that -- just wanted to mention it so this isn't a problem that WSL2 never worked.

ChrisJefferson avatar Jul 11 '24 04:07 ChrisJefferson

I encountered the same issue while using WSL Ubuntu 22.04. The zed is unable to render under X11 and fails to start under Wayland. Although I am not familiar with Rust, changing the following line fixed the Wayland issue but still fails under X11:

crates/gpui/src/platform/linux/wayland/client.rs 143: wm_base: globals.bind(&qh, 2..=5, ()).unwrap(), wm_base: globals.bind(&qh, 1..=1, ()).unwrap(),

I've tried to run zed in Arch WSL2. Turn out I need to rebuild mesa described like here https://github.com/microsoft/wslg/issues/1254 After that I can launch zed using unset WAYLAND_DISPLAY; zed As we use different distros of WSL2, I suggest to check if your distro can run simple vulkan test program like 'vkcube' first.

You rebuild mesa from here https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-packages/tree/packages/mesa ? I'm using ArchWSL too.

gleysonabreu avatar Jul 11 '24 22:07 gleysonabreu

@gleysonabreu in short I got it using pkgctl repo clone --protocol=https mesa

In detail:

  1. Vulkan refer to https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Vulkan I use intel iris, so I basically install vulkan-intel and vulkan-icd-loader. Also install vulkan-tools so you can have commands like vulkaninfo and test program vkcube.

  2. Get the mesa source Installed devtools and run pkgctl repo clone --protocol=https mesa

  3. Compile I installed devtools, rustup, llvm, llvm-libs. Run rustup default stable to have a proper rust environment Edit PKGBUILD as mentioned above, here's my edited one https://gist.github.com/jackysee/68968da635cd507f041464d7607c26f5

  4. Build and install Run makepkg -si If it complains PGP signature could not be verified, run gpg --recv-keys --keyserver hkps://keys.openpgp.org [THE_HASH_KEY] and try build install again

  5. Test Run vulkaninfo --summary and vkcube to see if it can show correct info.

I might have missed something as I'm not documenting when try to get it build.

Maybe helpful to someone: Upgrade Ubuntu to 24.04 makes Zed works on my WSL.

There might be NoCompositor error unwrap. unset WAYLAND_DISPLAY will do.

iceghost avatar Jul 12 '24 16:07 iceghost

I did an upgrade to Ubuntu 24.04 on my WSL2 install. I initially got the NoCompositor error, but I wanted to try to get Zed working with the Wayland compositor. I was able to get the error UnsupportedVersion after running ln -s /mnt/wslg/runtime-dir/wayland-0* /run/user/1000/. I found that solution at https://github.com/microsoft/wslg/issues/1032#issuecomment-1502152914.

I think this is just a Wayland in WSLg thing. However, if I run weston -B x11 to start a new compositor and run WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-1 zed, it actually works, although it is embedded in a parent window created by the Weston session.

noah-gil avatar Jul 12 '24 19:07 noah-gil

for anyone wanna run zed on WSL Ubuntu 22.04:

  1. install libvulkan-dev:
sudo apt-get install libvulkan-dev
  1. update mesa to 24.1, I would recommend the kisak-mesa:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kisak/kisak-mesa
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

end then run Zed with

WAYLAND_DISPLAY='' zed --foreground

Do you have integrated gpu? or only have Nvidia? Please take a look at this to select the Nvidia as default gpu device. You can also install the vulkan-tools to check GPU devices list with vulkaninfo --summary:

UnsupportedVersion seems that you are still running zed with Wayland (because Zed required Wayland 2 and above but WSL Wayland fork is 1), try to force it run with X11 by:

WAYLAND_DISPLAY='' zed --foreground

I can confirm that @jackysee instructions here works for arch installation; You just have to use mesa-git from AUR:

  • Download the Latest package build file
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/mesa-git.git ~/mesa-git \
&& pushd ~/mesa-git
  • Add microsoft-dozen-driver to provides array
sed -i "/^provides=\((\)/a \ \ 'microsoft-dozen-driver'" 'PKGBUILD'
  • Change the vulkan-drivers value in the meson_options array
sed -i 's/-D vulkan-drivers=amd,intel,intel_hasvk,swrast,virtio,nouveau/-D vulkan-drivers=amd,intel,intel_hasvk,swrast,virtio,nouveau,microsoft-experimental/' 'PKGBUILD'
  • Change the rmdir with rm -r
sed -i 's/rmdir/rm -r/' 'PKGBUILD'
  • install
makepkg -si
  • make sure /tmp/.X11-unix exists
sudo rm -rf /tmp/.X11-unix
sudo ln -s /mnt/wslg/.X11-unix /tmp/.X11-unix
  • run the following for confirmation
glxinfo -B
lspci -k | grep -A 2 -E "(VGA|3D)"
vulkaninfo --summary
vkcube
  • Update Zed desktop shortcut ( assuming you installed it through pacman with pacman -S zed)
sudo sed -i.bak \
    -e 's/^Exec=zeditor *$/Exec=sh -c "unset WAYLAND_DISPLAY; zeditor"/' \
    -e 's/^Exec=zeditor --new *$/Exec=sh -c "unset WAYLAND_DISPLAY; zeditor --new"/' \
    "/usr/share/applications/dev.zed.Zed.desktop"
  • set an alias for zeditor
alias zeditor='WAYLAND_DISPLAY= zeditor'
alias zed='zeditor'
  • in case you have installed zed with curl , use the following to fix the desktop file:
find "${HOME}/.local/share/applications" -type f -name '*zed*.desktop' -exec sed -i '/^Exec=/s/^Exec=/Exec=env -u WAYLAND_DISPLAY /; /^TryExec=/s/^TryExec=/TryExec=env -u WAYLAND_DISPLAY /' {} \;

@ChrisJefferson As the original reporter on this issue I wanted to check in and see if you were able to get this sorted with Ubuntu under WSL2. Coincidentally Ubuntu 23.10 was EOL'd one day after you posted this (2024-07-11) and given that Ubuntu 24 appears to work out of the box for most folks -- I'm hoping switching to Ubuntu24 will solve your issues.

Note, that at this time. people have reported that it only works with X11 not Wayland, so you will have to run Zed with WAYLAND_DISPLAY='' zed or similar. More info here.

I wrote a script to automate build and install on windows. I think this might address immediate needs until Zed team releases official binaries.

sudo apt-get install libvulkan-dev
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kisak/kisak-mesa
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

I checked the mesa driver version with apt policy mesa-vulkan-drivers and saw that I was still on Mesa 21.2.6, but I had the newest version available:

apt policy mesa-vulkan-drivers
mesa-vulkan-drivers:
  Installed: 21.2.6-0ubuntu0.1~20.04.2
  Candidate: 24.2.1~kisak1~f
  Version table:
     24.2.1~kisak1~f 500
        500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/kisak/kisak-mesa/ubuntu focal/main amd64 Packages
 *** 21.2.6-0ubuntu0.1~20.04.2 500
        500 http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal-updates/main amd64 Packages
        500 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal-security/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     20.0.4-2ubuntu1 500
        500 http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu focal/main amd64 Packages

I upgraded the mesa-vulkan-drivers using sudo apt install --only-upgrade mesa-vulkan-drivers and I'm able to run zed now

@notpeter I personally gave up, as I don't want to significantly update my WSL or install vulkan drivers, as I'm worried about breaking things and need it to function for work, but it looks like updating to a newer ubuntu release, installing vulkan and disabling Wayland is helping many people

Gave up on this. Followed all the hints above. Shows "empty project" dialog box without anything rendering inside it. WSL2

Same. I think that still needs more work behind the scenes.

Ok, I'm going to go ahead and close. Ubuntu23 is EOL and no longer supported. Running on Windows / WSL2 is not something Zed officially supports (yet).

Hopefully this will be something we can prioritize in 2025, but in the meantime, GitHub discussions / Discord are definitely a better place for these discussions.

Thanks all.

for anyone wanna run zed on WSL Ubuntu 22.04:

1. install `libvulkan-dev`:
sudo apt-get install libvulkan-dev
2. update `mesa` to 24.1, I would recommend the  `kisak-mesa`:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kisak/kisak-mesa
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

end then run Zed with

WAYLAND_DISPLAY='' zed --foreground

image

i tried it and it worked for me but i get a pop up saying "Unsupported GPU" so open your shell with

-- vim ~/.yourshellrc

go down at last

-- export ZED_ALLOW_EMULATED_GPU=1

and it is working properly now
