What are the workarounds for Writers Café not running correctly on Linux?
If there is a crash on startup or buttons and other graphical elements are not displaying correctly, there may be a conflict with a specific theme. In particular, the Elegant-Gnome theme set and Elegant-AwOken icon set on Ubuntu are known to cause problems. Please change the theme or just the icon set. On SuSE 11.3 with KDE, the default GTK+ compatibility theme OxygenMolecule has a conflict with the application’s PNG library. Choose another theme in System Settings/GTK Styles and Fonts, for example Clearlooks. If you find that the application menu is not showing, you can work around it using one of the following methods: • Use the appmenu or globalmenu as a panel menu by adding it to the panel; or • remove the appmenu and globalmenu packages from the system: sudo apt-get remove appmenu-gtk.
