https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/faq#_can-i-run-vs-code-server-on-older-linux-distributions Starting with VS Code release 1.99 (March 2025), the prebuilt servers distributed by VS Code are only compatible with Linux distributions that are based on glibc 2.28 or later. These include for example, Debian 10, RHEL 8, or Ubuntu 20.04. To continue running newer version of VSCode remotely over SSH on Rackham, please, add these 3 lines into your ~/.bashrc on Rackham. export VSCODE_SERVER_CUSTOM_GLIBC_LINKER=/sw/apps/pm-tools/latest/rackham/x86_64-gcc-8.5.0-glibc-2.28/x86_64-linux-gnu/x86_64-linux-gnu/sysroot/lib/ld-2.28.so export VSCODE_SERVER_CUSTOM_GLIBC_PATH=/sw/apps/pm-tools/latest/rackham/x86_64-gcc-8.5.0-glibc-2.28/x86_64-linux-gnu/x86_64-linux-gnu/sysroot/lib:/lib64 export VSCODE_SERVER_PATCHELF_PATH=/sw/apps/pm-tools/glibc-2.28/patchelf Contacts:

Before connecting to Rackham Quite often, the problem is on the client side and it is not related to the remote computer or the connection to it.Please check the points below to establish that the local setup is working fine. Make sure the MobaXterm X server is running.The icon in the top right should be colorful for running and grayed out when is not running. Check that the X11 server is enabled in the settings. Check that you have X11-Forwarding option enabled. Check that your local MobaXterm terminal can communicate with the MobaXterm X server.

https://github.com/kevinjohncutler/omnipose There are several dependencies that are difficult to provide on some of the systems unless installed with root. Rackham runs discontinued CentoOS 7 (until replaced by Pelle) and has libc version 2.27 which is too old to be supported by new software. Pelle will run Rocky 9 which currently have libc version 2.35. Common way to "shift" this problem is to run a container which can provide the necessary libraries and dependencies. Installing omnipose The tool requires a lot of dependencies and the project is "poisoned" by braking dependencies. On 2025.01.29 the following is installing successfully on Linux amd64 platform regardless of the distribution. https://hackmd.io/@pmitev/conda_on_Rackham

:::danger Note: the following instructions do not apply for Bianca! ::: In case you insist using conda from the module system, please follow these instructions. Conda - best practices @ UPPMAX If you experience unexpected problems with the conda provided by the module system on Rackham or anaconda3 on Dardel, you can easily install your own and maintain it yourself. :exclamation:Important: Please, install miniforge3 or miniconda3 in your project folder!:exclamation:

Bianca is a research system dedicated for analyzing sensitive personal data from large-scale molecular experiments. Bianca is part of the SNIC-SENS project. Since Bianca is designed to handle sensitive personal data security is a key aspect of the configuration and features restricted access and lack of direct Internet access to and from the cluster. This make it particularly difficult to use common tools to maintain python modules or software installations. Here are some tips and advises on different way to approach the problem. User installs via pip pip documentation Download the necessary modules - docs.
