Vulkan Samples not running caused by XCB errors

this is the current error,
trying to run any sample, comes with the same error

Hi Traversity,

Our Vulkan team is investigating this issue, the status will be updated once clarified how this error happened.

Thanks

Hi Traversitym

Have you tried with sudo apt-get install libx11-xcb-dev?

Hi Traversitym

The instructions to build the Vulkan Samples are:

  1. Build Vulkan loader with the instructions from Vulkan Support on Jetson Linux | NVIDIA Developer
  2. Build glslangValidator and spriv-as tools for aarch64 in $HOME
  1. cd $HOME && git clone GitHub - LunarG/VulkanSamples: Vulkan Samples
  2. mkdir build && cd build
  3. cp …/…/glslang/build/StandAlone/glslangValidator …/glslang/bin/glslangValidator
  4. cp …/…/glslang/build/External/spirv-tools/tools/spirv-as …/spirv-tools/bin/spirv-as
  5. cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DVULKAN_HEADERS_INSTALL_DIR=$(pwd)/…/…/Vulkan-Loader/build/Vulkan-Headers/build/install -DVULKAN_LOADER_INSTALL_DIR=$(pwd)/…/…/Vulkan-Loader/build/loader -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=install …
  6. make -j8
