Histograms giving black box in virtualbox

[Baba_s_Physics]

Hi, when I am trying to run a script for a Histogram on my Virtual Machine, it is just giving a black box.
!
I have tried installing guest additions again, enabling 3D- acceleration, Open GL support and different graphics backends(they do not work in the latest version which I’m using)
Basically everything that chatgpt told me.

I am really new to this…any help would be appreciated!

_ROOT Version: 6.28.04
Platform: Ubuntu 22.04 Virtualbox

I have never seen anything like that… Where did you install ROOT from? Is that the snap package?

[Baba_s_Physics]

yes it’s the snap package…should I uninstall and install in some other way?

A similar (solved!) issue from 2021:

Issue with ROOT graphics

ROOT Version: 6.26/10 Platform: Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS installed as VM on Windows 10 Host (VirtualBox 7.0.6) Since this morning (updated to VirtualBox 7.0-6) I’m having an issue in starting whatever ROOT UI. No error message is printed out, however, when I open e.g. a TBrowser, it appears very broken (see below). [image] I installed the new VBox Guest Additions, but nothing really changed. I also recompiled ROOT with no improvement Do you have any suggestions?
