No extension named MIT-SHM could be found on on the server
Hi all,
I've tried to run the basic example from the following command:
cd $GOPATH/src/golang.org/x/exp/shiny/example/basic
go build main.go
./main
This throws the following error;
x11driver: shm.Init failed: No extension named MIT-SHM could be found on on the server.
Why is this happening while xgb works. Could this be avoided in order to run shiny successfully?
I'm trying to run https://github.com/aarzilli/gdlv, but it is throwing the same errors.
Best regards, Ivan
So aarzilli has already described the cause of this issue fairly well, I think: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/15100#issuecomment-212925771
I don't know how reasonable it would be to try to solve this while still using shiny, I suppose a whole new driver could be added that might avoid X11's issues, but this sounds like something that is unavoidable when working with X11.
