When starting the IDE I get the following error message:
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: minimalegl, xcb, eglfs, linuxfb, offscreen, wayland-egl, vnc, wayland, vkkhrdisplay, minimal.

The IDE was installed via the run file: ‘openmv-ide-linux-x86_64-4.1.5.run’ on Linux Mint 20.3 / Ubuntu 20.04.
A new installation doesn’t help. I have already tried the following approaches:
- reinstall libxcb-xinerama0
- run setup.sh again
- re-execute the run file ‘openmv-ide-linux-x86_64-4.1.5.run’
- new installation via the tarball
- reinstall via the git repo
Thank you for the help.
Hi, I don’t know if the IDE works with Linux Mint. This is not a tested system.
It should be fine with Ubuntu 20.04. It’s built in the cloud using that.
./setup.sh
Will take care of the install for a fresh Ubuntu 20.04 OS.

This means there’s a missing library not installed. No amount of re-install will fix that.
Can you try:
sudo apt-get install libxcb*
On Ubuntu? We definitely already install most of the libxcb libraries already. I’m wondering if something else is going wrong.

This issue is actually a common problem with Qt applications.
It’s hard to tell if it’s a problem with your OS setup or missing libraries. The IDE should be good to go, though, on a fresh install of Ubuntu 20.04 on x86_64. Can you provide some more info?
Thank you for the quick answer, the above command was the solution, all that was missing was a library.
