Just for completeness, let me list some issues I noticed in 1.2.4preview (Linux). (Most of these I have corrected for myself already in the source code):
1) Parameters/flags set via the startup script are still not transferred into the checkboxes of the GTK menue.
2) Unlike the Windows 1.2.4 preview version, Joysticks still do not work under Linux
(I find MS Precision II/USB a very good modern digital joystick, despite my generic disliking of MS$ products; is perfectly supported in 2.4.14+ kernels)
3) Eclipse shadow display and various further flags should be settable in the startup script.
4) The two new tracking modes (
Phase lock, Chase) are settable by means of keys but are missing in the GUI menue.
