There are 2 things to fix. I don't have my Linux up right now, so I'm going by memory. They were pretty easy. The first problem was a structure defined in the Library had a different element name than the LineMode browser. It was pretty self explanatory. Just look up that structure and change the LineMode source to the correct element. It was ParentAnchor or something like that... The second problem was a function call had an extra parameter in the Library, but the function that the LineMode browser was calling didn't have this parameter. I just added an extra parameter in the LineMode source, I think I passed a 0 or an 80... Sorry for such sketchy instructions. Send me personal mail if you want more detailed instructions or the fixed source.
