Thank you for your comments and feedback. I'm glad to see that you got up and running. 

Please be aware, that the old Code Red site is very out of date now. The latest LPCXpresso information for installing on Linux can be found in the Installation Guide, or else at Installing LPCXpresso on Linux 

As you may be aware though, the last LPCXpresso IDE release was made some time before Fedora 26 was released. However I've flagged your comments regarding Wayland in our system for consideration for the MCUXpresso IDE installer in the future (though note that we only provide an MCUXpresso IDE installer for Ubuntu, and have no plans currently for Centos/Fedora). For more informaton on MCUXpresso IDE, please visit : http://www.nxp.com/mcuxpresso/ide

Regards,

The problem I'm having is that I use Fedora 26. This uses wayland.

So to install LPCXpresso I did the following:

1. Logout 
2. On the login screen select the "GNOME on Xorg" option (this makes sure to use X11 instead of wayland)
3. Run the installer
4. Edit the desktop entry for LPCXpresso (located under "/usr/local/share/applications/lpcxpresso-program.desktop")
   cp /usr/local/share/applications/lpcxpresso-program.desktop ~/.local/share/applications/
   Change "Exec=/usr/local/lpcxpresso_8.2.2_650/lpcxpresso/lpcxpresso" to "Exec=env GDK_BACKEND=x11 /usr/local/lpcxpresso_8.2.2_650/lpcxpresso/lpcxpresso"
   This makes sure that x11 is used by eclipse (see: Make applications (Eclipse) use x11 backend on Wayland (Fedora 25) | Coffee Oriented Programming )
5. Logout and log back in using wayland

The problem now is solved for me.

In addition to the steps mentioned above I also ran the installation process of the following guide: RunningOnLinux - ** Code Red Support Site ** 

This doesn't mean that this issue in general is solved! This should all be done by default or by detection of the display server type (e.g. Wayland or X)
