You are not by any chance trying to use display without having X configured
or something similar?  Essentially your problem is most likely related to
the fact that the 3.5 binary is a kind of hybrid, while the Debian package
might just be a plain command line version without X output support.

In any case, as you may have noticed this group not being filled with notes
that the Linux version does not work Linux systems, you may want to check
your system configuration carefully, and regarding the X issue, check older
messages in this group.  I can't promise it will help you solve your
problem, but probably give you some pointers what to check first...
