I am not able to launch Feko 2023.1 on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS and Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS.  This is the error message that shows   :

Warning: Ignoring XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland on Gnome. Use QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland to run on Wayland anyway.
qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found.
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

Available platform plugins are: linuxfb, minimal, offscreen, vnc, webgl, xcb.

Aborted (core dumped)

    Hello Frank,

    Based on the same error "This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized." on the other OS (Windows), we recommended the customer to check the Feko installation log  in order to know if  something weird happened during the Feko installation process.

    For example, I can find the Feko installation log on my Windows PC's directory as shown below.

    Please check your machine at the associated location on your Linux machine.

     

    Best regards,
