LE, in testing some auto-generated scripts last night, I could not for the life of me get my NPC to display the quest "Feather" above it's head on Linux. If I pointed my Windows server to that database and used the same scripts, I get the feather fine. Not sure if this is a bug, or something I have wrong in my compile(?), but Sprinting works, so I assume LUA is working fine.
Also, there are no errors about loading scripts on Linux. As usual, my linux box is at your disposal if you do not have one handy. The quest is my BurkStoneshatter.lua in Graystone. I can provide the scripts if you need.

Scratch this - nothing appears wrong, I think it was a path/case/naming problem or, dumb luck that it's now working fine.
