Running gedcomVisualGUI on Linux (WSL)

WIP, looking for feedback

Linux (WSL - WSL version: 1.1.3.0)

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt install python3-pip

This seems to work best...

sudo apt install xubuntu-desktop

Then you can use UXTerm from the Ubuntu menu of your windows Desktop (Slick) I'm not sure if any of the steps below (Saved for reference) are required or they are covered by the desktop install

This seems to be the way people are going on Linux...

sudo apt-get install python3-venv

python3 -m venv gedcom-to-visualmap
source gedcom-to-visualmap/bin/activate

Do the install of wxPython to make sure it gets configured and setup correctly. You may need to install or setup other modules as above like (libgtk-3-dev). I read that you should not every run pip with sudo

# this attrdict3 is only required for WSL because of issues in the image
pip install -U attrdict3
pip install wxPython
pip install git+https://github.com/D-Jeffrey/gedcom-to-visualmap.git@v0.2.3

I have not figured out how to use venv properly yet, so this a work in progres.

The egg seems to be generally working (thought I don't have a background understanding of eggs). It appears eggs are obsolute.

##Running on Linux (WSL) Using the steps of download and unzip release 0.2.1

pip install -U attrdict3
pip install wxPython
cd gedcom-to-visualmap
pip install -r requirements.txt
python3 gedcomVisualGUI.py

Trying an alternate approach of:

sudo apt install xubuntu-desktop

Windows and Linux (WSL) running on Windows 11 - WSL 1.1.3.0 - Ubuntu img

Saved for reference

I'm not sure if these steps are still required

This is to sets up and and installed X-Windows for WSL using xfce4 using the guidance from https://askubuntu.com/questions/1252007/opening-ubuntu-20-04-desktop-on-wsl2/1365455#1365455

sudo apt install pkg-config
sudo apt install libgtk-3-dev 

sudo apt install xrdp xfce4
# If asked, select lightdm, although it probably doesn't matter

# Optionally, back up the default config
sudo cp /etc/xrdp/xrdp.ini /etc/xrdp/xrdp.ini.bak
# Windows Pro and higher are often already running RDP on 3389
# Prevent conflicts:
sudo sed -i 's/3389/3390/g' /etc/xrdp/xrdp.ini

# Prevent Wayland from being used in Xrdp
echo "export WAYLAND_DISPLAY=" > ~/.xsessionrc

# Optional, if you only have one desktop environment installed
echo startxfce4 > ~/.xsession 
sudo service xrdp start

Now that you have X installed you can access it by logging into it view a Remote Desktop Connection to localhost:3390

You will be prompted for you WSL username and password. (I login the Xorg as the Session type)
