Hi I have install ROS in wsl and autoware yet not managing to display RVIZ. The error is

libGL failed to load driver: swarst
segmentation fault core dumped

Any ideas on how to tackle this error please and thank you

If you are using VcXsrv on Win10 side. I found adding -nowgl VcXsrv parameters helps to get around some video card driver problems.

This worked for me with Windows 10 and ROS installed on WSL Ubuntu 18.04.

It helped to find a fix. I'm using Win10 WSL2 Docker to run rviz, for XServer I use MobaXTerm terminal. In MobaXTerm go to Settings -> Configuration -> X11 -> OpenGL acceleration and select Software (Hardware and None didn't work), now Rviz runs with GUI thanks
