Graphical Environments & Desktops • Sway WM stopped working

Hello Image may be NSFW.
Clik here to view.
:)


I've recently had Sway WM stop working on my Lenovo ThinkPad T490 with Debian 12 Bookworm.
I suspect the issue was my having done an
apt upgrade
which may have moved some low-level packages causing the break.

Previously, sway would work just fine - I'd log into my account with command line, type in
sway
and the window manager would start up. Now when I type
sway
in I get

Code:

[wlr] [backend/backend.c:217] Found 0 GPUs, cannot create backed[wlr] [backend/backend.c:386] Failed to open  any DRM device[sway/server.c:56] Unable to create backend
I've tried

Code:

sudo apt remove swaysudo apt install sway
but the problem persists.

Any ideas on how to fix this and get Sway working again?
