Basically I was trying to run SDL3 inside WSL/WSLg and nothing showed up, so after checking for error in init it failed due to not finding a driver, yet when using commands to check it is clearly there. It also works with other GUI applications no problem at all.

First I thought it was my setup with vcpkg, but even removing and using git submodules it still failed, later I changed it to SDL2 and it works without a problem, so I would guess it is something to do with SDL3.
