I don't have a linux machine, so I can't verify it and I honestly have no clue why it happens. It's built from the same project as the windows version, which starts up normally. Do you think that exporting with debug would leave some error message?
Good news, it works ok om my other Linux computer! When I get back to my other computer in a day or so I will run it from the command line to see if there are error messages displayed.
