Hi,

this is a bug in wxwidget 2.8.3 under linux. Please use wxWidgets 2.8.4 this will fix the problem (see the wiki page for details)

No need to compile wxWidgets yourself if you don't feel comfortable with it.
Here are binary packages:

Quote from: www.wxWidgets.org

wxGTK Debian and Ubuntu packages for 2.8.5 are available. To use them please add

    deb http://apt.tt-solutions.com/debian/ etch main

or

    deb http://apt.tt-solutions.com/ubuntu/ dapper main

respectively to your /etc/apt/sources.list file (you can also use edgy or feisty instead of dapper depending on the Ubuntu release you use) and add the public key used for signing wxWidgets packages to the list of keys trusted by apt using the command

    curl http://www.tt-solutions.com/vz/key.asc | apt-key add -

and run apt-get update. You can then use apt-cache search --names-only wx\*2.8 command to see the available packages.

Please notice that the packages are currently only available for x86 and amd64 architectures, please let us know if you can help with providing them for the other platforms.
