title: Xming Visual Studio Code on Windows 10 Linux Subsystem
body: <p>What I am trying to do is basically run Visual Studio Code on the Linux subsystem of a Windows 10 Anniversary Update machine. I have installed the code.xxx.deb package using gdebi and solved the few requirements missing. I have Xming installed on Windows, which works (I've tried it with xeyes and firefox). However, that doesn't seem to work when I run <code>DISPLAY=:0 code</code>. The terminal becomes available again without any error message. By running <code>DISPLAY=:0 code --verbose</code>, I get the following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>[6952:0213/151841:FATAL:render_sandbox_host_linux.cc(40)] Check failed: 0 == shutdown(renderer_socket_, SHUT_RD). shutdown: Invalid argument

  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am not really sure how to deal with this. It must be something specific to this package but I can't figure out what.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance for your help.</p>
  
  <p>PS: the reason I'm trying to do this is to use the Visual Studio Code GUI debugger as I am compiling under the Ubuntu subsystem only.</p>
