I get the initial splash screen and that's it. I don't believe anything significant has changed on the system since the last running of Calibre.

I rebooted, same result. I upgraded to the most recent version of Calibre, same result. I upgraded Linux, same result. I uninstalled and reinstalled Calibre, same result. I used calibre-debug -g from a console and got the following:

Code:
$ calibre-debug -g
calibre 3.13  embedded-python: True is64bit: True
Linux-3.19.0-32-generic-x86_64-with-debian-jessie-sid Linux ('64bit', 'ELF')

Python 2.7.12
Linux: ('debian', 'jessie/sid', '')
Interface language: None
Turning on automatic hidpi scaling
devicePixelRatio: 1.0
logicalDpi: 96.0 x 96.0
physicalDpi: 81.5518394649 x 81.6428571429
Using calibre Qt style: True
Starting up...
It sits there until I kill it.

I'm out of ideas. Anything I can try or options I can use to get more info about what's going wrong?
Running Mint 18.3 with no problems.
Have you change your display resoultion?
