Is stable v1.81 rendering fine on the same setup ? Can you provide the output of code --verbose ?

Let me try with the latest update

Yes, stable code renders ok.

Regarding the output of code --verbose: Does that contain any sensible information? It seems to list github auth tokens etc...

Do you want to know anything specific?

I do see e.g. this on running code-insiders --verbose:

Errors:
link failed but did not provide an info log
[9415:0815/131910.112903:WARNING:angle_platform_impl.cc(48)] ProgramGL.cpp:989 (checkLinkStatus): Program link or binary loading failed with no info log.
[9415:0815/131910.113128:ERROR:shared_context_state.cc(81)] Skia shader compilation error

Note that I do not see the same for code --verbose.

Thanks for the logs, those are definitely related to the issue. Can you try starting with code-insiders --disable-gpu-driver-bug-workarounds and see if the issue persists ?

[deepak1556]

Merging to #190437, since the error logs match.

[BMWestrich]

Yeah
