I am using GNOME 45 on X11. This command is run in GNOME Console. According to README, I was expecting it shows a window.

I can use Cage normally in TTY with DRM backend.

Which X.Org server graphics driver are you using?

Proprietary NVIDIA.

Exactly the same issue

emersion commented

Proprietary drivers are not officially supported by wlroots.

Is there an upstream issue that we could track? Or a workaround, by e.g. falling back to software rendering? @emersion
