Tracking Issue: Invisible Window on Linux #16428
Comments
I've read every comment in each of these issue and here is my current takeaways.
Still working on identifying solutions for users without a Vulkan-supported GPU (e.g. no modern Intel Graphics, AMD GPU, AMD APU or Nvidia GPU, etc) who are trying to use the |
If Zed could detect the situation where the Vulkan drivers don't support Vulkan 1.3 and print a message along the lines of "please update your drivers/OS" instead of silently not opening a window, that would probably go a long way in terms of user experience. |

So, I have an AMD Radeon integrated graphics as well as NVIDIA RTX 3060 Laptop GPU, and under WSL-2 (Ubuntu 24) I was able to get vkcube to recognize my nvidia gpu by installing kisak-mesa and liquorix kernel.

I'm not sure why 1.2 is only supported for my GPUs only under WSL-2. Vulkaninfo gives me these 3 GPUs:
And vkcube seems to use the nvidia GPU:

@notpeter, here's another potential one: |
I just ran into this on a 2024 Asus G14 (AMD Integrated, NVIDIA Discrete) running Nobara (basically Fedora) when doing either |
I was using zed 100%, until i open NVIDIA Server X Settings (Ubuntu 24.04 LTS) and i changed the prime profile from "NVIDIA On-Demand" to "NVIDIA (PERFORMANCE MODE)", this issue appeared until i restore it to "NVIDIA On-Demand", and now it back and works great. |
@ryukinix too old for Zed, see #14314 (comment) |
Thank you for pointing out the real issue around this problem in my case! |
