Eagle starts in black screen Ubuntu 20.01

When I start Eagle in Ubuntu 20.01 it worked properly for the first 2 weeks. Then all of a sudden it has gone all dark. There's nothing on the screen. The title says offline mode and a sign up window pops up which is also blank and

black. running with the EXPORT LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 also does not work nor does reinstalling eagle.

 

Here is a screenshot.

This does not work for me since I can't see anything on the screen (refer to the screenshot) and I am signed out of my account and cannot sign in (also seen in the image).

@Anonymous Autodesk's Eagle Support almost never comes in here: so while you wait, consider posting/asking in the EAGLE forum over here and see if fellow users can jump in with guidance https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/eagle/ct-p/4001

Good luck.
