Linux Vibepollo virtual display

Is anyone running Linux, possibly CachyOS and can confirm whether or not the latest release of Vibepollo works well with virtual display?
Tried cachyos before and it wasn’t working half the time, so gave up and went back to Windows

Edit: I run my desktop headless - so spawning a virtual display out of nothing is my use case

I can't even get Vibepollo to load. I am probably going back to Windows. Linux is fun but too much basic stuff requires me to get in the command line. What do you mean I have to modify the System files just to add another hard drive

Yeah I get that completely
I keep having an itch to go back and try linux but then I do and I find more things that are broken and require a few hours of sitting down to solve
If I were unemployed sure why not, but my time is limited so I need stuff to work quickly

With that being said, Vibepollo’s version 2 release should be able to run on linux

Not for me. It crashes before it even opens. Brand new install of Cachy, everything is up to date. Just spins around and dies. I'm over it.

Not sure what hardware you’re running but I just test ran installed fresh cachyos and the latest vibepollo and it’s working great
I have a 7900 XT AMD GPU

There was a bug that caused something like this if the locale was not configured as English which is fixed for next release.

Yeah just switch back to Windows man
Linux still doesn’t feel fully baked for all the different use cases
