Issue description

Trying to create a basic window in WSL Ubuntu, the BeginDrawing() and EndDrawing() are not drawing to screen size.

Environment

Platform: WSL
Operating System: Ubuntu
OpenGL version: OpenGL version string: 4.2 (Compatibility Profile) Mesa 23.0.4-0ubuntu1~22.04.1
GPU: NVIDIA 3070

Issue Screenshot

Code Example

#include <raylib.h>

int main() {

  InitWindow(800, 450, "Hello World");

  while (!WindowShouldClose()) {
    BeginDrawing();
    ClearBackground(BLACK);
    DrawText("Hello World", 10, 10, 20, WHITE);
    EndDrawing();
  }

  CloseWindow();
  return 0;
}

More info:

I get the same results with the examples provided and the game-premade package. If I run it with breakpoints, the image will be cleaned up when I click on the window but the issue will occur on each iteration of EndDrawing():

Seems others may be having this issue as well Raylib glitches and windows size.

I ran all the same tests on my Windows Machine (Windows 10) and the issue did not occur.

@jcsmurph I could be wrong, but I don't think WSL is supported.

Either way, if you're on Windows, mingw/gcc is likely a better alternative. More info at the wiki.

@ubkp Thanks for the info! I saw some others who had success setting it up in WSL so was hoping I could as well. But not much can be done if WSL isn't supported. Weirdly enough, it worked just fine this morning for about 5 minutes before the issue occurred again.

If need be, I will use my Windows setup.

@jcsmurph Yeah, I really don't know what's the current status of WSL support. Perhaps you could check on https://discord.gg/raylib if anyone there got it working.

Cool. Going to close this out then. Thanks!
