[enhancment][help wanted] Use with VSCode Dev Container #49

I'm trying to use this brilliant image with VSCode Dev Container and I fail miserably. Seems to be some issue with the VSCode sleep command to keep workspace open and the startapp.sh functionality. As a workaround I have been trying to let this image sleep and wait for connection to x server over tcp by adding '-listen tcp -ac' to the Xvfb startup, and have my program connect from another container. However getting this working seems to be above my level of understanding :( Any ideas?

Not sure what you are tried to achieve. Is "VSCode Dev Container" already a Docker container ?
