Re: [darktable-user] Windows Subsystem for Linux

Doug,

Yes I have built and installed darktable on Ubuntu 20.04 installed under
WSL.  It works fine, but there is one major shortcoming in that it doesn't
have direct access to your graphics card, and therefore OpenCL is not
available.  I believe that the WSL developers are looking at this.

[darktable-user] Windows Subsystem for Linux

2020-08-16 Thread DougC
Has anyone tried installing and using linux darktable under Windows Subsystem 
for Linux (WSL)?

I have some issues with the Windows install and intend to work through them to 
help improve darktable but in the meantime I thought of trying WSL as an 
alternative.
