MOM's Computer crash on Linux

I have the box version of World of Goo, and I installed it on Ubuntu by installing the demo from Software Center and replacing the res folder with the one on the disc. It worked fine until I got to MOM's Computer. I can build up to the MOM icon, but then the game crashes shortly after clicking it. When I say "crashes", I mean the game just closes. Annoyingly, I can't skip the level because it seems to be handled differently than all the other levels... Any ideas?
The MOM's Computer dialogue tree logic is stored at the bottom of properties/text.xml.bin instead of in the level. Copy that file over as well and see if it works.
And you're right, plot-important levels have a flag set so they can't be skipped.

No, all the text in the game is stored in properties/text.xml.bin. WooGLE & GooTool just helped you to merge all the text together.

Sorry, what?
The dialogue tree logic is stored in an interesting way. In text.xml.bin there are keys like
which set up the transition logic for the dialogue trees. The comments show that this solution was set up fairly late in development, and I imagine MOM's Computer would crash without the keys.
I didn't say anything about WooGLE or GooTool.

Okay I misunderstood you. Sorry.
And that's really interesting.

I have no idea why they did it that way when it's not something that would need to be changed, and has nothing to do with text localization.
