However, using `srvx8` does not. The kernel is too old and requirements are not met. There is a fix.

We are going to use a [singularity container](https://sylabs.io/guides/3.7/user-guide/) to run a more recent version of `node` and
allow VSCode to use `srvx8` as well. It will complain a bit, but work.
Here is how:
1. Login to `srvx8`
1. Login to `srvx8` or `srvx1`
2. run `/opt/containers/vscode-server/setup.sh`
3. Look inside `$HOME/.vscode-server/singularity.bash` and make sure that path that you require are available in `SINGULARITY_BIND` variable. Your Home directory is always available. Other system path not.
- Maybe it is necessary to change to BASH, `chsh -s /bin/bash` on remote host

Your Home directory is always available. Other system path are not.
- Maybe it is necessary to change the user shell of your account to bash. Run `chsh -s /bin/bash` on remote host (`srvx8`, `srvx1`, ...)
4. Switch `remote.SSH.localServerDownload` to `off` in the Remote SSH package.
