I hit this bug today, but can't identify what I did that caused it. Indeed, there was a zombie software-center process still running, but it had no associated visible window.

I got the following output when starting software-center, each time I tried, and it resulted in the blank screen:

$ software-center
2011-06-02 16:36:16,475 - softwarecenter - INFO - Using data (UI, xapian) from current dir
/usr/share/software-center/softwarecenter/SimpleGtkbuilderApp.py:32: RuntimeWarning: missing handler 'on_window_main_button_press_event'
  self.builder.connect_signals(self)

Doing the 'killall' software-center' made everything work again.
