Wayland is broken in 1.67.1 on Arch Linux

[zoeleu]

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: N/A, VS Code doesn't even open.

• VS Code Version: 1.67.2 1.67.1 (-2)
• OS Version: Arch Linux (rolling release)
• Desktop Environment: Gnome 42
• Drivers: NVIDIA 515

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Add --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland to your flags
2. Watch VS Code not launch

Thanks for creating this issue! It looks like you may be using an old version of VS Code, the latest stable release is 1.67.1. Please try upgrading to the latest version and checking whether this issue remains.

Happy Coding!

Do you know whether those flags were working previously (indicating there's been a regression), or did you just encounter this issue?

Add --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland to your flags

Can you clarify where you added these flags, did you start the application like code --ozone-platform=wayland ?

I added them in ~/.config/code-flags.conf but I tested it by manually launching the actual vs code binary on /opt/visual-studio-code/bin/code and it doesn't launch.

having the same issue. VS Code will launch though will crash when attempting to resize the window.

This is probably related to #148507 and it looks like that will be fixed in 1.69.0

Hey @deepak1556, this issue might need further attention.

@matteoturini, you can help us out by closing this issue if the problem no longer exists, or adding more information.

I no longer use Wayland, some other person will need to test.

It's working fine on Wayland for me (v1.71.0)
