install WSL on windows 11. Launch WSL bash.
$ sudo apt install wireshark -y
$ sudo apt install konsole -y
Expected Behavior
Konsole window starts up just find. Bash starts. I can type commands and see them echoed back. If I hit enter, the command is executed as expected.
Actual Behavior
Konsole window starts up just find. I am unable to type in the window. Some control characters work such as CTRL-C and CTRL-D. Carriage return works. I can also cut and paste commands into the konsole, hit return and commands are executed.
I see the same behaviour in all other X clients.
Even more bizarre, if I ssh -Y linux then run konsole, the konsole window pops up on windows 11 desktop, but I see the exact same behaviour in that I can't type, but CTRL-C and CTRL-D. Carriage return works. I can also cut and paste commands into the konsole, hit return and commands are executed.
I have tried lots of google searches, but I am unable to find anything that helps.
Multiple reboots didn't fix the issue.
I tried removing and re-installing WSL and ubuntu, but it did not solve the issue.
Problem seems to be something related the X server that is running on windows.
Diagnostic Logs
I am not sure what logs to capture. I followed the guide, but the command failed.
