Blank screen on Ubuntu 24.10

Support

I’m running a fresh install of Ubuntu 24.10

I just installed the stable version of Slicer following the instructions here.

Specifically I downloaded version 5.6.2 and installed the dependencies using the command listed in the documentation: “sudo apt-get install libglu1-mesa libpulse-mainloop-glib0 libnss3 libasound2t64 qt5dxcb-plugin”

When I run the executable for slicer I get the pop up screen but when it goes away there is nothing on the screen. And when I try to quit the app from the sidebar it is unresponsive.

Any idea what could be causing this issue?

I don’t think people have had much experience with 24.10 yet, so different dependencies might be needed. A few ideas could be to build from source, use a debugger, or commands like ldd and strace to home in on where the application is exiting.
