I'll release a minor release of Negatron for this issue tonight.

Edit: Negatron 0.99.6 available with the related fix.
It works!

Re: Another Linux starting issue

I don't have the time to do it now but, over the weekend, I'll draft a quick Java exec to see exactly what are the JDK and JavaFX versions that Java applications can see on your machine.

Re: Another Linux starting issue

It looks like Negatron is crashing when parsing the JavaFX version, not the JDK version. Can you check and see which JavaFX versions are installed on your system?
