Fix black screen on GNU/Linux Upstream

This is a very common error on GNU/Linux. Why it's not fixed upstream?
It's quite easy, just edit CmapTool Bash script at "bin/CmapTools" like posted on that thread.
This is my diff (also attached):
23,26d22
< # Fix problem with 3D compositing in GNU/Linux
< # Please check: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=60
< export AWT_TOOLKIT=MToolkit
<
Without this fix, the Linux version is just unusable for non-computer skilled people like the one I work with on a Edubuntu environment.
After that fix, I got this error:
libXp.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
So I had to install libxp, don't know why, but now it works:
sudo apt-get install libxp6
Another suggestion: Why not open source CMapTools? That will be just great, and could be included in GNU/Linux distributions
Cheers
