I have tried a 'normal' overwrite install. It does install with no noticeable errors, but will not show up/open. My resource monitor shows "Calibre" and "Calibre-parallel" processes running.

I then did a reinstall of 2.85 and everything runs normal again.

Next I did the "isolated install" script and ran calibre from the command line per the instructions. Here are the errors:

A ctrl-c will terminate the process ok at this point.

Nothing unusual about my Linux install as far as "BadWindow" errors go, as far as I know. Is there a debug command that may help with this?

Thanks.
Installs and runs ok on my Mint 18.1 system.
use
Code:
calibre-debug -g
to start in debug mode.

This is the cmd I use to install calibre:
Code:
sudo -v && wget -nv -O- https://download.calibre-ebook.com/linux-installer.py | sudo python -c "import sys; main=lambda x:sys.stderr.write('Download failed\n'); exec(sys.stdin.read()); main('/opt')"
Check your display settings, go to the next setting down in size.
