Display Error with Visual Studio Code under Ubuntu

I have a problem with Visual Studio Code for several days: it cannot be started (in fact, the window is almost completely black), but here is the console output when I launch it from the terminal:

I had the same problem and installing virtualbox guest add-ons version 5.0.16 really solved the problem. However, as noted in the FAQ section of the VS Code project website, you can also run VS code with the --disable-gpu option, which also solves the problem. From the official FAQ:

Is the VS code main window empty?

The Electron shell used by Visual Studio code has problems with some hardware acceleration of the GPU. If the VS code displays a blank (empty) main window, you can try disabling GPU acceleration when running the VS code by adding the Electron command-line switch -disable-gpu.

On ubuntu, first try running the visual studio code from the terminal with:

 code

If there is any package error, install it. Then, if there is a black screen, go to:

 sudo vi /usr/share/applications/code.desktop

Add disable gpu line as follows:

 Exec=/usr/share/code/code --disable-gpu %U
