After installation in Linux Mint CB is hiding ;)

[Bubba]

Hi Linux users. Installed CB in Linux Mint, was able to install couple plugins change the display setting (don't remember what option I choose), and shut it down normally. After couple of days when attempted to start the program (CB) again, all I got is quick flash of a opening screen and that is. How I can change the behavior since the Tools, options are not available. In windows the config file is accessible in Program Data. I don't see it in Linux Mint. BTW, I'm relatively new to Linux. Hopefully somebody have an idea how to fixt this with out reinstalling CB again. Thanks.

Hello, open a terminal and type:
gedit ~/.config/CamBam\ plus\ 1.0/CamBam1.0.config

Change what you need and save the file.

The configuration file is in your home directory, into the hidden directory .config.

Hi, Thank you for the help, as it turns out I did not change the display settings as I thought. Unfortunately after changing the display options in the opened config file the same odd behavior still there. The CB screen flashes momentarily, and that's it.. Any more suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi, probably you have to change the parameter

<DisplayMode>OpenGL</DisplayMode>

and choose GDI or OpenGL_Legacy,

And maybe it's a good idea set <SaveSettingsOnExit>false</SaveSettingsOnExit>

Thank you Andrea for suggestions, unfortunately the problem persists.
Anymore suggestions? Thanks.

Try removing the plugins from ~/Cambam1.0/plugins
If that doesn't help, try starting the program from the command line ("cd ~/Cambam1.0 && ./cambam.sh") and see if any error messages appear.

Thank you for the suggestions. I already deleted CB and will reinstall it again soon.
