As you'll note from this bug report it was fixed for 3.5. We fixed a lot of
other issues on Linux for that release too, including a couple of slow
downs, crashes and memory leaks that occurred under certain window managers.
Linux has a small market share, is a rapidly moving target and is a large
and amorphous number of versions. Nonetheless we are committed to supporting
it and if these issues with Ken's app truly do persist in 3.5 then we will
take a look at them and sort them out for a future version.

Kind regards,

Kevin
