The latest in the saga (with Ubuntu) is that on occasion, it just won't show the bottom of the window. It just won't show it. So, for example, to select "Skinny" in PCB Designer, I just can't do it directly, since the Skinny option is not visible --- I need to maximize, unmaximize, then maximize again.... *Then* I see the bottom of the window and I can select "Skinny". I just did that now, and yes, I could see the command box!!! Thanks for the clarification!!

Just like in vi, execute pcb and type a ":". Your cursor should jump to a text box at the bottom of the page. Then type the command.
