VSCode will not Launch Raspberry Pi - visual-studio-code

I have downloaded the 32 bit ARM VScode to my raspberry Pi 3. It is currently running Jessie and I have ran updates and upgrade.
The VSCode icon is available and I can find the exe file is installed. When I click to open it will not launch. Nothing happens, no messages or dialog box. I have uninstalled and reinstalled and still the same thing happens.
Am I missing something?

I had this exact same problem, and this command worked for me:
sudo apt --fix-broken install

Installing jupyter lab on RHEL 7

I install jupyterlab on RHEL 7 (RedHat) with
pip3 install jupyterlab
Now I am trying to start it. I need to run it only locally (no need to open any ports). I found where file is located, but still cannot launch it. I tried jupyterlab and got back command not found.... I am guessing I need to add it to PATH, but I still expect it to run when launched from the same directory. Whatever limited experience I have with Ubuntu, does not work on RedHat.

Strange vscode issue in WSL

I've been trying to set up the vscode code . shortcut to work in WSL. Following the instructions from the vscode website, I reinstalled vscode in windows, reinstalled the Remote-Wsl extension, made sure it was in my System Path, and tried running code . in the WSL linux distro terminal. I get the message instructing me to install it on the windows side, and asking me if I want to continue. I hit yes, but it doesn't create the code server folder in my home directory. Typing code . again does the same thing.
Does anyone know why this may be?
This is the output text:
To use Visual Studio Code with the Windows Subsystem for Linux, please install Visual Studio Code in Windows and uninstall the Linux version in WSL. You can then use the code command in a WSL terminal just as you would in a normal command prompt.
Do you want to continue anyway? [y/N]
The error message isn't just pointing out that you need to install the Windows version, but it indicates that you have the Linux version installed in WSL and should remove it.
From that, it sounds like at some point you may have installed the Linux version of VSCode in WSL, and that one is taking priority. You'll need to uninstall it in order to run the Windows version of VSCode with the "Remote - WSL" extension.
You don't mention what distribution you are running, but if it is Ubuntu, try:
sudo apt remove code # or
sudo apt remove code-insiders
Also see the uninstall doc from Microsoft.

zsh: command not found: vim

I have an issue in flutter installation on MacBook Air M1 chip. It drives me crazy. I get the error :
zsh: command not found: vim
screenshot
I enabled rosetta terminal and re-run it again, but same issue.
I tried almost all installation videos online but nothing helped.
You don't have vim. To install it, run the command below :
sudo apt-get install vim
You can also use nano. Also, it's vim ~/.zshrc (where ~/ refers to the home directory of the current user) and you also misspelled zshrc.
I suggest you follow the official docs for the correct installation steps.
I have also created a detailed blogpost about the installation steps and the possible issues that one might encounter. It is written extensively for MacBook Air with M1 chip running BigSur (which I work on).

Failed to install Platformio IDE in vscode

Problem
I'm using platformio IDE in vscode.
Before 2019.10.11, the platformio IDE extension worked well.
But after 2019.10.11, every time I open vscode I get this message.
Installing PlatformIO Core...
Please do not close this window and do not open other folders until this process is completed.
Failed to install PlatformIO IDE.
No more information shows.
What I Have Tried
Uninstall vscode and reinstall it
Uninstall platformio IDE and reinstall it
Downgrade vscode from 1.39 to 1.37
Downgrade platfotmio IDE from 1.90 to 1.83
pip --no-cache-dir install -U platformio
conda install platformio
pip uninstall platform and then pip install platformio
Restart the computer
Uninstall platformio IDE and delete all the folders and files whose names contain 'platformio', and than reinstall platformio
Run vscode as administrator and install platformio IDE
I still haven't fixed the problem now.
What I Have Found
After I uninstall platformio IDE and tried to reinstall it (of course I failed), I found the folder "C:\Users\Bowman.platformio"'s size is only 0KB, and it contains only one folder ".cache".
What I Have Installed in My Computer
Anaconda(Python 3.7)
JDK
node.js
.NET Core
mingw64
Visual Studio 2019
Visual Studio 2017
Stm32CubeIDE
Today I tried and (initially) failed to install PlatformIO on a Linux Mint 20.2 Cinnamon machine. VSCode V1.61.2 was freshly installed, Python3 was installed.
Trying to install PlatformIO told me that the Python on the machine was not suitable and installation failed.
After enabling Developer mode in VSCode (Help | Toggle Developer Tools) and trying the install again, I found an error message that told me that the distutils package for Python was missing.
That is because I had not installed pip3.
In the terminal, run sudo apt install python3-pip
That gets you the appropriate packages and then PlatformIO will install properly.
good afternoon.
I had exactly the same issue.
Did pretty much the same topics you described.
For me it was related to the anaconda software.
I uninstalled anaconda, uninstall/reinstall platformio in the visual studio environment and it worked.
I got the message that the platformio service was already started and that got me thinking.
regards
thats no big deal i had the same issue....just go to help > Toggle developers and in that press console and search platformIo that will show the error most likely with python installation ...you might wants to install some packages manually....
i was using ubuntu...so python packages conflicts...

CentOS 5.5 Gnome login screen stuck at loading

I did a yum remove fontconfig not knowing that it removes all packages that depend on it as well. That's 300 packages that have been removed.
I have tried to reverse the process by running yum remove fontconfig again on another similarly-configured CentOS 5.5 machine and reinstalling those packages in the output of the command.
The Gnome logon screen is stuck at loading cursor.
My Gnome is still broken and I have switched to KDE for the time being. I can use a weird hybrid of Gnome Desktop and KDE window manager where the UI is Gnome but the desktop is not clickable and there's KDE apps instead of the Gnome ones.
/etc/sysconfig/desktop
DESKTOP="GNOME"
DISPLAYMANAGER="KDE"
Using the KDE login to choose Gnome also gives me this weird KDE/Gnome hybrid.
I have reinstalled the Gnome-related packages several times and it doesn't fix the issue.
yum should have given you an indication of the volume of packages that it was going to remove and should have given you the chance to abort the attempt (unless you used -y which, I imagine you now realize, you shouldn't).
There's no need to attempt to "reproduce" the problem to find the list of packages. The yum log file /var/log/yum.log will tell you everything that yum installed and removed.
On CentOS 6 and newer yum has a history command that can also display this (and other) information.
