Anyone know what is up with the latest ARM64 versions of Visual Studio Code?
I have version 1.50.0 running fine, but newer versions 1.69 and 1.70 don’t display anything on the screen!?! No error is reported when running from a bash terminal, and several code instances show up with ‘ps -A’, but nothing comes up on screen.
I’m not sure what the heck that means. Do you want me to build it myself from git or something?
I am talking about the released versions from Microsoft’s web site that get pushed to you automatically via software updates (v 1.71, just released, still doesn’t display anything, btw).
Oh, I see – J5.0…2 is the L4T BSP, not the version of Microsoft code?
Is there anything I need to do other than ‘sudo apt update’ and ‘sudo apt upgrade’ to install this?
I saw that code v1.71 was available for upgrade, but when I upgraded I didn’t have any better luck – it still doesn’t display anything. I had to roll back to v1.50 of vscode.
Thanks for trying to help, but your responses are very cryptic and I am not sure what you are asking me to do.
Ah ha! I discovered that visual studio code 1.71 will start if you use “–no-sandbox”. I have no idea what that means or what all the side-effects are, but it does let you use the editor. It seems to have something to do with Chromium’s Electron Sandbox.
