Step 2: /entrypoint.sh ground_truth:=false start_aic_engine:=true

Simulation environment could not be shown with Qt platform plugin “xcb” and OpenGL 3.3 failure:

[INFO] [launch_ros.actions.load_composable_nodes]: Loaded node ‘/gz_server’ in container ‘/ros_gz_container’

[gz-4] qt.qpa.xcb: could not connect to display :0

[gz-4] qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin “xcb” in “” even though it was found.

[gz-4] This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

[gz-4] Available platform plugins are: eglfs, linuxfb, minimal, minimalegl, offscreen, vnc, wayland-egl, wayland, wayland-xcomposite-egl, wayland-xcomposite-glx, xcb.

I’m running on WSL2 having NVIDIA RTX4070 card. Please advise for a solution. Thanks.

I’m also using WSL2, and having issue when running step-2**: Start the Evaluation Container**. But it’s different issues. One Q: Have you installed any ROS seperately besides following the instructions?

For this evaluation, I ran the docker to download all of preset ROS 2 version and QT in its own environment per requirement. For different ROS on my own project, yes I used Jazzy version and it worked. I’ll try to install the same Kilted Kaiju to verify the issue.
