LabVIEW 2024 under Linux. For loop corrupted

[Raf@Tecnora]

Hello to the Community,

I know that almost nobody uses LV under Linux and the support is not guaranteed. Anyhow I have tried to do that and, albeit limited, the overall experience seems promising.

Unfortunately there is a single weird bug that prevents me to properly do some development: the For loop in block diagram is badly corrupted. The loop content in overlaid with what seems graphic memory garbage (see attachment).

Had anyone had the courage to run LV under Linux and experienced a similar behaviour?

LV2024 Q1 on Ubuntu 22.04 here.

Thanks for reading

Is that with every FOR loop straight from the palette or a specific FOR loop from existing code?  Is the problem purely cosmetic and the FOR loop still works properly? Could be an issued with the graphics driver, for example. Is your diagram way oversized? (see here)

I have successfully installed LabVIEW on a Linux VM and adapted one of my programs. No problems, except for issues on the front panel (mostly fonts that were too big) it run perfectly and the code looked fine. (details).

Thank you @altenbach for your feedback

Every For loop is filled with garbage, being it an existing project copied from Windows or a brand new vi created in Linux.

No zooming nor scaling. Screen dpi is standard. Resolution 1920x1080.

For loop functionality is nonetheless correct.

Could be particular issue with your Linux Installation.

In the past I've used Pop!_OS flavor (which is based on Ubuntu 22.04 in general) and haven't had any issues like this (on the other hand it was older version). Can be installed under this OS after minor install script modification. Could be NVidia problem, I have seen some issues on Linux and NVidia, but since I used Pop!_OS, where NVidia driver is integrated into distro, then it works like a charm.

Yeah, I agree on the possibility that Nvidia drivers are the culprits.

I have managed the problem by installing a Lubuntu VM in which I do the development...quite weird, do code development for Linux in a Linux guest under Linux host...
