I was unable to complete the VMWare Workstation Player 17 install on a Ubuntu 24.04 LTS host even though there is a Linux installer.
Note that this bug report says that the host is Windows 11. Similarly, I was able to install VirtualBox on a Ubuntu 24.04 LTS host but was unable to duplicate https://launchpad.net/bugs/2061584 . I suspect that it happens on a Windows 11 host because I have heard reports of it affecting someone with a Windows 11 host with Intel graphics (no Nvidia). I have other priority work I need to do today, but someone interested in trying to duplicate this bug should check if it happens with a Windows 11 host. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to mesa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2061118 Title: Rendering issues in vmware with 3d on (GTK ngl backend) Status in GTK+: New Status in Mesa: New Status in gtk4 package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in mesa package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in gtk4 source package in Noble: Invalid Status in mesa source package in Noble: Triaged Bug description: Build: Noble Daily Current from 12th April Host OS: Windows 11 VM App: VMWare Workstation 17 Player Issue: During installation there is continuous black flickering artefacts throughout the flow.
