On WSL2 I start GUI programs by installing VcXSrv on Windows 10, and then
in my bash profile I put:
*export DISPLAY=$(awk '/nameserver / {print $2; exit}' /etc/resolv.conf
2>/dev/null):0*
In order to get the Italian keyboard to work I have to set these parameters
when setting up VcXSrv:
-xkbmodel pc105 -xkblayout it -xkbvariant winkeysIn any case I'm guessing this issue is probably due to the WSL2 environment, which is kind of mixed with the Windows environment (it actually picks up the PATH environment variable from Windows!)
