Though I suppose it's possible they've also pushed it to the insider builds for Windows 10.
- cma 5y agoApparently they are only going to allow gpu compute on wsl2 on windows 10 and not allow the full graphics integration.
- tyingq 5y agoAh that's dumb. One of the best things about wslg is pretty pedestrian, but very helpful. You can make Windows shortcuts to launch applications in a very easy way now. Within the "Target:" setting, for a shortcut, just "wslg.exe /some/program -args". No wrappers, no setting DISPLAY, no calling /bin/sh -c "whatever", etc.
- nyanpasu64 5y agoI'm hoping someone will develop an unofficial tool to unlock wslg on Windows 10.
