Linux super user issue
Hi, for an extension I need to run VScodium as super user on Linux (to enable an option) but when I do it with this command
sudo codium --no-sandbox --user-data-dir=~/
I just have a blank window. VScodium works perfectly when I run it as a normal user but does that when I run it with this command.
This command always worked but not anymore.
(PS: I used Sublime text for a few months and I just switched back to VScodium and I can't remember which version it last worked on).
- I'm on Ubuntu 20.04
- x86_64
- My VScodium is on 1.68.1
Do VSC even support run from super user?
It does yes
I used to have Neon Dream activated in the Synthwave 84' theme, but recently it's not working anymore. I can't re-enable it due to this bug, and I really love the text-shadow effect it gives :P
I try to launch it using this command (which worked before):
sudo codium --no-sandbox --user-data-dir="~/.config/VSCodium/"

It takes a lot of time to build the config folder. Make sure you give a correct folder or it will screw up your home folder.
sudo codium --no-sandbox --user-data-dir="/root/.config/VSCodium/
