@snowgato can you try 'sudo apt install dbus-x11' and tell me if that resolves your issues?
Install 'dbus-x11' and this problem, will be fixed. Not sure why WSL2 distros do not install dbus-x11 when you install an x11/GUI app, but the problem is dbus-x11 is missing.
> @TheNavyBear I'm not convinced `dbus-x11` package is the issue. I'm running `xterm` and `dbus-x11` is not installed and there are no artifacts. I did run into the issue previously...
This is a recurring issue with WSL2, any distro. I have 18 GUI apps installed, and after every Windows reboot its anyone's guess as to which ones might show up....
I would also like to see this be a feature!
I tried 'sudo edit-grub-config' but that just brought up the brunch config tool.
I had Linux GUI apps listed in my start menu, then today I installed 4 new Linux GUI apps, and only one showed up in start menu. Rebooted and then...
If you run 'sudo apt install dbus-x11' your GUI apps should work. Somehow the WSL system is not flagging dbus-x11 as a required dependency of x11/GUI apps.
