    No LSB modules are available.
    Distributor ID: Ubuntu
    Description: Ubuntu 23.04
    Release: 23.04
    Codename: lunar

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Install code wsl2 inside ubuntu
  2. upgrade to the latest ubuntu (lunar in my case)
  3. Start vs code

As can be seen in the screenshots something strange is happening with the fonts making the software not usable. The rending is not an issue with other graphical packages (e.g. firefox) hence I do not know how to fix it. I also tried with
disabled_start

code_wsl2_ubuntu
