There are always some alternatives, you can use GNUColab or VNC. I have no idea about how they works.

now working any idea what happen to the pervious colab why the issues? thanks

Here is a summary
The issue was not working because the service wasn't starting, I applied a small fix i.e. started the service manually using

sudo service chrome-remote-desktop start

I hope that Google haven't done this intentionally, I have closed the issue.
