Wayland

We do not yet support the windowing system Wayland for any Linux distribution. So you are going to see multiple errors when trying to run AskUI instructions or may not even be able to start the AskUI Controller.

You can check if you are running on Wayland with

echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE

If it says wayland you guessed it, you are running on Wayland.

As a solution, you can switch to Xorg instead of Wayland (how to switch to Xorg).

libfuse2

If you are using Ubuntu 22.04 or later, you need to install libfuse before using AskUI lib since it's no longer installed by default.

libfuse2 can be installed with:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libfuse2
