Suddenly LB started loading but does nothing. The program does not come up. It shows up in system monitor but is doing nothing. No interface to select previously defined backups, just nothing. This just started about a week ago.. What can I run to get a response?

I am on Ubuntu 21.04.4.

Could you run the command:
/usr/bin/luckybackup
at a terminal and notice if there are any errors present?

I have done that. There are no messages. I have to go into System Monitor and End the program. The Terminal will then return to the prompt. I can start LB multiple times. If I check System Monitor, there will be that number of instances of LB shown as active, but none of them display the LB screen. It's as if LB is running but is not communicating with the display.

Loukas,

I had to reboot my system because of some updates, and LB now runs as before. Since I could find nothing in the logs or messages, either the update fixed the problem or at least reset something that had gotten out of whack. So all is good.
