Missing text when using Linux

Many parts of the RomVault UI are missing text when running with mono on Linux, particularly Ubuntu. The issue occurs on fresh installs of ubuntu 22.10, 23.04, and debian 12.

Another user reported the same on debian with xfce so probably not kde that broke it. He mentions:

"I'm erring towards libgdiplus and its dependencies (handles .net/mono's system.drawing mechanism which includes the fonts) being the culprit, it's the only reasonable change I can find, the distro's that work are using an 'older' version+dependencies, debian and ubuntu have significant dependency changes between version 6.0.4 and 6.1 of the libgdiplus package."

Also, the font library dependency for mono changed on debian/ubuntu - likely the font and app window sizing is causing text not to be displayed now. Suggest maybe trying a smaller font that fits in the RV UI rows to see if that resolves the issue.
