[Question] Difficulty with X11 fowarding #713

Description

Question

After changing the run_docker.sh to have a display that matches the host "--env" "DISPLAY=${DISPLAY:-:0}" it still dont work, it should have rendered the window at my host machine when trying to run the empty env from IsaacLab: python submodules/IsaacLab/scripts/tutorials/00_sim/create_empty.py

In similar fashion to when I run IsaacLab through container.

I am confused if I am missing a piece of information on how to do it properly or if there are unaddressed issues.

Build Info

Describe the versions that you are currently using:

  • Arena Release: release/v0.2.1

I did some changes to address the user mismatch issue and the container running as root, this should be discussed properly in another post as it was a really disruptive issue.

    I fixed the issue partially, it will need further refactoring but will make a PR soon. There are several unaddressed issues with the project and using the run_docker.sh and entrypoint.sh should be replaced with a python script and docker compose similar to isaaclab solution to docker.
