Description

I am using ubuntu 18.04 LTS with electrum-3.3.4-x86_64.AppImage. When I run it, nothing happens, the window doesn't show up at all. When I check system monitor, the program runs but the status is sleeping. It used to work before yesterday, but now it doesn't . Why?

Research direction

Start by running electrum-3.3.4-x86_64.AppImage on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and compare the sleeping process with the missing window described in the issue. Determine what changed before the failure and capture enough startup information to identify the cause; done means Electrum opens normally or the issue has a reproducible failure explanation.
