Alright, I'll give you the instructions that have worked for me:

1. First, execute the following commands in the ChromeOS Flex terminal (within Penguin): sudo apt install fuse sudo apt install flatpak and flatpak --user remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://dl.flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo

2. Restart Penguin (or close the terminal and restart ChromeOS Flex if you can't find the button).

3. Open the terminal, run Penguin, and install the following from Flathub:

flatpak install flathub it.mijorus.gearlever (After installing GearLever from Flathub, you can find it in the ChromeOS Flex applications menu).

4. Download the official Ultimaker Cura AppImage (5.6.0 as of April 26, 2024):

https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura/releases/download/5.6.0/UltiMaker-Cura-5.6.0-linux-X64.AppImage

5. Move the downloaded file to the "Linux files" folder.

6. Run GearLever and go to "home"; you should see the Cura AppImage you moved to the root of the Linux folder. Press "unlock" and then "open." If Ultimaker Cura opens without issues, you can install it to create a shortcut in the ChromeOS apps menu. (GearLever was installed in step 3)

Hope this helps!"

Stumbled upon this post as I am running into the same issue.

I followed all the steps above. When I try to launch Cura in gear lever I hit "unlock" and then nothing else pops up and I cannot do anything. Any advice on how to open it? Thanks! @kafufafu

Cura 5.6 works on Crostini (Debian-base Linux on Chromebooks), however 5.7 (including 5.7.2) doesn't.

The error has been reported in multiple places:

• https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura/issues/10815
• https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxquestions/comments/1c1nwg7/attempt_to_run_cura_wayland_dead/
• https://www.reddit.com/r/chromeos/comments/1c8uhai/hi_trying_to_run_ultimaker_cura_in_linux_and_i/
• https://community.ultimaker.com/topic/45363-new-570-issue/

Workarounds:

• Downgrade to 5.6
• Force X11: QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb ./Cura.AppImage (however some UI like the Marketplace seem broken).

The Cura log has a few warnings:
