White screen. Can't change background color, or draw ANYTHING.

Anyone experiencing this problem? I've been away from the application for almost 18 months. Upgraded Ubuntu from V20 to V22.04.5 LTS I started BricsCAD tonight, and encountered an error:

(1) Redsdk API error code

After some search, I learned that this has something to do with a hardware rendering issue. So I went into the settings menu and switched to software rendering. I restarted the app, and no more Redsdk error message. But my model space and paper space backgrounds are white, and I can't draw ANYTHING. I can select different colors for the backgrounds in the settings menu, but the screen remains white.

    Don't know. In windows I would suggest delete registry entries for BricsCAD, but don't know how that works in Ubuntu. Other things is update all drivers etc. the usual fixi 101 kind of stuff. Last resort reinstall BricsCAD, but make sure you back up your workspace settings and cancel your licence so you can re-licence the new install. Oh before reinstall, Make sure your licence of BricsCAD is available. (I think they have archives if it is an old one.)
