Rev standalone app stays in memory on my Xubuntu 9.10

It sounds to me like you've got an open socket or file laying around in 
the program that is preventing it from closing.  Check your sockets and 
open files when you quit (handle the quit stack message).  Maybe a 
driver on one machine is not releasing the socket and so your program 
stays around waiting.
