Thanks for the replies.
Today updates came down the line for 16.04
and it works now.
openSUSE already had the fixes and it worked fine there,
so now I was just waiting for this.
On with the show...

Hi list. Requesting verification of a bug:
After upgrading from *buntu 14.04 LTS to 16.x, the LV2 Gtk2 UIs
such as Calf and others crash upon opening them in both
Qt5 QTractor and Qt5 MusE-3, at these similar calls:
QTractor: In qtractorLv2Plugin.cpp
QWidget *pQtContainer = QWidget::createWindowContainer(pQtWindow,
pQtWidget);
MusE: In lv2host.cpp:
ewWin = QWidget::createWindowContainer(x11QtWindow);
The crash ultimately happens deep inside the Qt5 libraries at the
same place in both apps :
QXcbWindow::setParent()
I tried building Calf from source release, and tried different
video cards. NG.
But... If I bypass createWindowContainer() in MusE the UIs open and work
fine! (Just that now of course they are outside of the container window.)
It's Qt 5.5.1
I read about a bug fix and revert where they assumed always a valid screen
but then had to revert, but that's supposed to be fixed now.
I'm confused.
Is it just me getting these crashes?
Thanks.
Tim.
