ERROR: Framebuffer Objects not supported

Hi! I've downloaded the latest nightly zip file and extracted it on a Windows 11 VM running in KVM on Ubuntu on a ThinkPad T14 g1 AMD system. When I run pythonscad.exe from the shell, I'm getting the welcome dialog, but once the main window should open, noting appears. In the terminal I see this: ``` Loaded design 'C:/Users/Quickemu/AppData/Local/Temp/test.scad'. Failed to load libEGL (The specified module could not be found.) create: Failed to load and resolve libEGL functions GLEW Error: Missing GL version ERROR: Framebuffer Objects not supported ERROR: MouseSelector: Failed to create framebuffer; disabling mouse selection. ``` What am I missing? Do I need to install Mesa or something?

Do I need to install Mesa or something? > Why is it trying to load libEGL? It should use WGL on Windows. This could be a Qt issue. In any case, Windows doesn’t ship with GL drivers, so you need to install something that matches your setup. Mesa is probably good for SW rendering, unless your VM has GPU passthrough. -Marius
