Same issue here as above, using Fedora 39 and KDE Plasma 6 with Wayland of course.
I had this issue on Fedora 40 using the flatpak version from flathub, but it started working again once I applied the pending Freedesktop Platform updates in the software center.
Same issue here as above, using Fedora 39 and KDE Plasma 6 with Wayland of course.
I 'fixed' it by downgrading the mesa packages. I had the issue with the mesa-libEGL package on version 24.1.0~rc1 - downgrading to 24.0.4 allows me to use wezterm again.
In wezterm config, this option :
front_end = "WebGpu"fixes it for me !
That fixed it for me as well. Thank you.
In wezterm config, this option :
This does not seem to be valid lua? How are you supposed to use it in the config file?
Apparently like this:
$ cat .wezterm.lua
-- front_end = "WebGpu"
-- Pull in the wezterm API
local wezterm = require 'wezterm'
-- This will hold the configuration.
local config = wezterm.config_builder()
-- This is where you actually apply your config choices
-- For example, changing the color scheme:
-- config.color_scheme = 'AdventureTime'
--
config.front_end = "WebGpu"
-- and finally, return the configuration to wezterm
return config
Running Ubuntu 20.04 with Gnome, selecting the WebGpu does let wezterm launch.
I can reproduce this bug, changing front_end to "WebGpu" doesn't work for me.
