  ...
  backgroundMaterial: `auto`

  ...

Linux

What about Linux? Well, that's complicated as you need to keep in mind that everyone using Linux is using a different desktop environmnet and has it setup to their own preferences.

Glasstron will not continue development just for Linux users. We do not find that it is worth it.
