Additional context Add any other context about the problem here. I would like to use vcxsrv with export DISPLAY=:0 instead of VNC, but loadup script uses vnc for some reason.
I was able to capture a screenshot of a moment when vnc window was displaying something
YOu're not running WSL2?
I'm not sure the build scripts will run on WSL1. Can you run with the 'release' loadups?
Yes. When i download and extract medley-250501-30872f62-loadups.tgz and then run ./run-medley ldex works with vcxsrv.
Fixed in PR#2163. @kotenok2000 Could you try it out on WSL1 since I did most of my testing on WSL2.
Why does Medley repo cloning download 1.1 GB .pack file?
