It sounds like it's not finding the file. I think it may have to do with
the way the command line is passed under linux. For windows, you usually
get full path info as to where the executable is. Not so under Linux.
So it depends on what the current directory is. Try running wxIDE from
the command line, from the same directory, and see if you get different
results. It also may depend on what the current directory is after you've
double clicked on a file. I'm not entirely sure, but I've run into these
sorts of issues myself (I'm not a Linux guru by a long shot!).
I will hopefully be releasing the next version of wxIDE by this weekend,
and it allows you to specify where to look for its database and ini file,
so this should help you.
