Ok so sounds like you did a fresh install of 20.04 and then launched libreoffice (should be installed just fine ith a non-minimal install like you did). Perhaps something went wrong with your install, but everything went find for your VM install.
Could you please provide the journalctl output from running the libreoffice command: 1. (terminal 1) setup file to capture the output: `script -f journalctl-output.txt` 2. (terminal 1) start watching journalctl: `sudo journalctl -f` 3. (terminal 2) start libreoffice from the cli: `libreoffice` 4. if i understand correctly, no libreoffice appears and the stdout in terminal 2 is empty 5. (terminal 2) kill your libreoffice command with `Ctrl+C` if it seems hung 6. (terminal 1) kill your journalctl tail with `Ctrl+C` 7. (terminal 1) quit capturing the stdout in a file: `exit` Please provide that journalctl-output.txt file so I might have a look at the logs. Also you said that sometimes you get a white square in the center of your screen when you launch libreoffice.. is this when you launch it with the command line or with the icon? It would be great to get the logs from this scenario with the above steps, if possible. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1871067 Title: libreoffice doesn't start To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1871067/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
