I'm seeing similar issues. I have followed the Linux install instructions, which has me use http://static.leaflabs.com/pub/leaflabs/maple-ide/maple-ide-0.0.12-linux32.tgz. When I open it, I'm asked to choose a folder, which I choose, then the dialog goes away, and that's it. Nothing else appears graphically. When run from a command prompt, this is what I get.
