Which 0.9.26?
https://sourceforge.net/projects/tuxpaint/files/tuxpaint/0.9.26/
Please make sure you are trying with the newest 0.9.26-6
Did you try with the zip or with the installer? x86_64 or i686?

Also in the Languages tab, please select any language, IIRC there was 
some 0.9.26-X release failing to start if language was set to 
system's default.



Another thing that could be interesting to explore is if your laptop
has a multiuser installation and the user that is trying to run Tux Paint 
has very low privileges.
