This is a view of 6.6.2 RC6 on my Mint installation via VMware Fusion.

I get a little of topic below.

Ever since I changed over to Mint, I have been much happier with Linux.  This does not explain how to fix Ubuntu though.  But it is another justification of why I am not using Ubuntu for anything more than checking how things work.  Lately I have been doing more server type work regarding Linux.  I want to use the standard LiveCode vs the server iteration of LiveCode.  

Getting the standard version of LiveCode to install on a headless server is a lot of work.  Each server is a unique Alice and Wonderland experience to get things working.  It is very important that LiveCode runs well on Linux.  The server world is all about Linux.  We need to elegantly be able to support running LiveCode on 64 bit, headless installations of Linux.      

Any work that the team can do to improve the look and compatibility issues we are facing would be much appreciated.
