I have a user who’s running root under the Windows 10 “ubuntu subsystem”, using the latest version of VCXSRV as his X server. The setup works fine for other graphical programs (e.g., gnuplot), but he finds that root crashes VCXSRV after the first plot. He can plot, say, a sine function, successfully, but the X server crashes immediately afterward. We’re trying to figure out what root might be doing that other X applications aren’t.
Root was installed using “apt-get install root-system-bin”, but this doesn’t seem to be relevant. If he uses ssh to connect to a remote Linux computer and runs root from there, the same thing happens.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
