Empty window shows up when running on llvmpipe

Describe the bug / provide steps to reproduce it

Since Zed doesn't support OpenGL yet (hopefully will support is soon), I have to use llvmpipe for vulkan.

Running zed directly didn't do anything (even though I'm logged in as root). Running sudo $(which ~/.local/zed.app/bin/zed) only opened a window with only a frame (you could click through it). This doesn't seem to be a WSL-only bug because I encountered it on an even older laptop.

Environment

WSL 2 - Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS on Windows 10 x86_64
GPU - doesn't support vulkan

@TadaHrd I think your issue may be related to older packages in Ubuntu 22 (updated in Ubuntu24). Others have reported using the backported llvm and mesa from the kisak/kisak-mesa ppa have helped.

Could you try this:

sudo apt-get install libvulkan-dev
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kisak/kisak-mesa
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
