WSL2, Windows 10, Ubuntu 22 installation - a minor correction to the established procedure

SCT
1

I was able to install SCT in Windows 10 with WSL 2. The final installation procedure is slightly different from the one on your website.

There is a need to add the VcXsrv application to your Windows Firewall’s list of fully allowed applications.

The .bashrc file on Ubuntu requires a dynamic IP address update (sometimes).

Copy and paste in these lines to your ~/.bashrc file.

export DISPLAY=$(awk ‘/nameserver / {print $2; exit}’ /etc/resolv.conf 2>/dev/null):0.0
export LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=0

I will take a look at including these additional steps in our documentation.

Thank you again,
