Urgent, show stopper: Blank Sign In window, impossible to use Eagle

[lsnc-e1]

My offline period expired and eagle requires now a new sign in.

However, the sign in window is completely black.  Diagnostics to the terminal shows:

Sandboxing disabled by user.

This is quite urgent as this completely prevents me from working!!!

I suspect that the line "js: Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token {" is the culprit.

Found the real problem.  The old faithful Linux problem, which is solved with:

export LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 ./eagle

Well, you have my Linux version info.

Something should be done to make it a little bit easier to solve these.

I had a similar problem in EAGLE 9.5.2 and 9.6.0. Schematic and Layout windows worked fine, but the Control Panel Window was black. When (blindly) switching from Home to the Preview tab, everything gets drawn again with a window resize, with the home tab, everything went black again. Also the license information and the about windows were black, but the settings windows were not.

Starting eagle with "LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 ./eagle" once seems to have fixed it permanently, now I don't have to use this prefix and it still works

It wasn't fixed permanently, only in the terminal were I used the prefix before. Still have to use the prefix in every new terminal.
