Hi.  
I am having issues getting up and running with XCTU software on my ubuntu 18.04 machine.

Please find attached log file here: [https://gist.github.com/XeroHero/80700df4c73f48a13db0489ce85e6a1e](https://gist.github.com/XeroHero/80700df4c73f48a13db0489ce85e6a1e)

Did a clean install of the software using default options (/opt/xctu folder)

Thank you.

Make sure you are doing it with sudo
