Very good! I hope my experience will help in that endeavor. Thank you again!

Note: I had reviewed the release history...but it didn't even dawn on me it was an android version!

I upgraded linux mint to v21 about a month ago. I've been T/S off and on since but have reached a point of giving up.

Checking resources for these installed items shows no missing dependencies, etc. I've tried to reinstall, also.

stderrgui.txt shows some information but I can't make much sense of it. I don't see where I can attach that log file but here is the gist.

(boincmgr:14531): Gdk-CRITICAL **: 07:05:44.129: gdk_window_thaw_toplevel_updates: assertion 'window->update_and_descendants_freeze_count > 0' failed
(boincmgr:23569): Gtk-CRITICAL **: 19:06:33.874: gtk_box_gadget_distribute: assertion 'size >= 0' failed in GtkScrollbar

I realize this is for manager and not the client but I can't find any other logs.
