The controller.start() does not display anything in Windows Subsystem for Linux.

[Fotouhif]

I am using Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) in Windows 10. Besides this, I am using Xming in Windows to enable X server for the terminal and I can see "xclock" and "glxgears" by using this X server. However, when I ran the following code, the visualization of ai2thor environment did not pop up and the code got stuck in "Display 0 '0': 1680x1050 (primary device)." line without going back to the command line of the terminal.

"import ai2thor.controller
controller = ai2thor.controller.Controller()
controller.start()
controller.reset('FloorPlan1')"

I get the following results when I run the code:

"Found path: /home/fotouhif/.ai2thor/releases/thor-201909061227-Linux64/thor-201909061227-Linux64
Mono path[0] = '/home/fotouhif/.ai2thor/releases/thor-201909061227-Linux64/thor-201909061227-Linux64_Data/Managed'
Mono config path = '/home/fotouhif/.ai2thor/releases/thor-201909061227-Linux64/thor-201909061227-Linux64_Data/Mono/etc'
Preloaded 'ScreenSelector.so'
Display 0 '0': 1680x1050 (primary device)."

Would you please tell me how I could address this problem and see the ai2thor controller environment through WSL correctly?

Any response would be appreciated.
