For the users interested in running the Linux version 1.1.
As other users in this thread, the game was crashing with ReferenceError PhoneMenuConfig undefined as soon as I tried bringing up the menu. Looking at the Windows version, I saw the game files were exactly the same, so this was a problem with the Linux binaries.
I was launching the game by running the Game binary, which seemed obvious. This was a mistake however, and it is not the binary called by the Game.desktop file by the way.
Launching the game by running the nw binary is the solution. The game works perfectly fine with it, menu, phone messages, audio, saves, etc. I've not finished the game, by am already several "days" in the game with no issue that I can see.
