If you are attempting this on Windows 10 (with I assume the WSL), then please indicate that in your question. This is not something we can guess and makes diagnosing errors like you show us impossible.

I just went through the same thing, turned out it was OpenGL was not installed on my system, you may want to check that first. After I installed it, rvis ran with no issues...

link text check this link also, there is a troubleshooting guide link there.

I just did this on my Firefly rk3399 but, it's an 64 bit Linux embedded OS, not windows. I have heard windows 10 can run ros, but I have never tried it out.

For installation of OpenGL it took some time to search everything, but by using the command line I got it running inside of an hour.
