DevPod on Wayland

I am working my way onto Aurora from Pop_OS! and am loving 90% of my experience so far.
One thing in my way is that DevPod won’t spin up and it looks like a wayland issue, but I know close to nothing about wayland/x11 and I cannot login to an X11 session (it’s a boot loop).
So I’m not sure what to do but here’s the devpod error if I try dev-pod from the cli

❯ dev-pod

** (dev-pod:11752): WARNING **: 08:19:44.933: webkit_settings_set_enable_offline_web_application_cache is deprecated and does nothing.
Gdk-Message: 08:19:46.069: Error 71 (Protocol error) dispatching to Wayland display.

Are you using hybrid graphics? I faced Error 71 due to hybrid graphics. There is a bug in mutter.

Below is how I fixed it:

I’ll have to apologize for not knowing much in this area… I have a mid-high tier gaming PC basically with an nvidia 3090. I tried that GSK_RENDERER env var, but when setting it and then running dev-pod again I get the same error

Check this out. I hope it helps. :slight_smile:
