It took a long time to launch in Plasma (nVidia) today. There is no crash, but I see some of the same output as in the original report. The warnings are a possible secondary issue, let me know if I should break those out into a separate but report. The repeated error also looks concerning.

Launching with the options in the menu:

❯ code-oss --disable-crash-reporter --unity-launch %U

Still an issue? We've seen a few updates since.

Sep 13 '24 06:09 ReillyBrogan

Just tried it again. No luck.

Sep 15 '24 06:09 malfisya

Try this again with vscode 1.95 when it's finished building

Oct 30 '24 03:10 ReillyBrogan

Still the same unfortunately. :disappointed:

Does VSCODE_NO_WAYLAND=1 code-oss work?

Oct 31 '24 01:10 ReillyBrogan

Yes, it works. I have been adding that to my desktop file to make it launch.

Oct 31 '24 04:10 malfisya

Try code-oss --verbose -d, maybe it'll show you something interesting

Oct 31 '24 18:10 ReillyBrogan

Nothing to note at glance :

Some googling around for that failed to import supplied dmabufs error seems to indicate that your issue might be related to your multiple GPUs. Have you tried forcing it to launch with one or the other?

Nov 01 '24 00:11 ReillyBrogan

This looks like a "me" thing and not an actual bug on Solus. It happens to all electron apps (heroic, bitwareden, vscode). Closing.
