MCL-4164Bootstrap is frozen or disappears
When I click Minecraft, Bootstrap 5 appears and goes through the normal starting process. After Bootstrap says "Starting Launcher.", the Bootstrap window does one of these:
1. Disappears.
2. Freezes and will not let me do anything. The window's title bar is not selected, and will not let me do anything but minimize it.
I started noticing this problem when I upgraded from Ubuntu 15.04 to Ubuntu 15.10.
I have an Intel core i5 processor. I have a 1920x1080 screen and Intel Mobile Graphics. I am using a Dell XPS 13. (older version)
Environment
Ubuntu 15.10
Created Issue:

Happens to me too. This is what the crash report says:

Well the CPU is a Core 2 Quad Q6600 and I have the xorg driver for AMD cards installed (as radeon has some compiler version incompatibility with ubuntu 15.10). Other OpenGL games run fine. It may have to do something with having both java 7 and java 8 installed (jre 7 for running Attack-of-the-BTeam server).
Attack of the BTeam and Big Dig clients run fine.
I have updated another Ubuntu 15.04 to 15.10 and Minecraft runs fine there. If you need more information, please contact me, I am happy to help.
That's funny. The problem started when I upgraded to 15.10.
I figured out the source of the problem. Ubuntu was trying to run Minecraft with Java 7. Running it with Java 8 worked.
