Just wondering when the WSL GUI support will be available to the general Windows builds? An estimate of the timeframe would be very helpful. Thanks |

WSLg will be available alongside the next major release of Windows. Unfortunately we can't share timeframe for that. |

What does prevent WSLg usage in older Microsoft Windows 10 versions? Assume one can make Weston, freerdp and pulseaudio packages for their distribution to skip the system distro unavailability. |

Some sneak peak with WSLg in my Windows 10 21H1 x64 system. |

It works without modifying the system. You can simply compile freedrp and weston (from microsoft mirror repository) and install msrdc (https://docs.microsoft.com/fr-fr/windows-server/remote/remote-desktop-services/clients/windowsdesktop) and manually launch weston and msrdc. But, it is very slow (compared to vcXsrv) in rdprail-shell mode. I think it is because shared memory is not enabled but I am not sure if it is possible to configure it. Tested on 20h2 / NixOs wsl with the latest kernel version. |
