Regarding the chat window, and related functionality, not working on Linux, we thought we had that resolved, as explained in the first post, but we did not.

We now know the reason for the problem. We are resolving this now.

It has to do with how word wrap calculations were done. There was an OS function we were using, that was not working as expected under Wine.

Still, the programming of the related code was not the best design, by the programmer who did this and we are developing a proper solid solution.
