Anyone can help with these errors?

I downloaded the appimage, run it and gives these errors. I also selected to import extensions from vscode.

Also when I try to set a prompt it always says its unavailable

I am using ubuntu 24.04

Thank you

Hmm. That didn’t solve it for me.

$ cursor . --no-sandbox

Hi! I noticed you’re having issues installing Cursor AI on Linux. I suggest trying this automated installation script I developed: GitHub - evandrodevbr/cursorAI_install.sh: A powerful bash script for managing Cursor IDE on Linux with smart installation, updates, and maintenance features. Includes progress tracking, backup system, and user-friendly interface.

It resolves most common installation issues by providing:

  • Automatic dependency checking
  • Backup and recovery system
  • Permission fixes
  • Multiple installation management
  • User-friendly interface with progress bar
  • Detailed diagnostic logging

To use it, simply:

git clone https://github.com/evandrodevbr/cursorAI_install.sh
cd cursorAI_install.sh
chmod +x cursor-ai.sh
./cursor-ai.sh --install

If you find this solution helpful, please consider giving it a :star: on GitHub! And if you’re familiar with shell scripting, your contributions would be greatly appreciated - you can help make the script even better for the entire community.

If you encounter any specific issues during the process, the script provides detailed logs in ~/.cursor_log that can help us diagnose the problem.
