Due to the jobs now being Matrix to accommodate multi platforms jenkins
insists on only showing the Parent. I have tried many variations to show 
children (aka Linux views) without success. I may have to dig into jenkins 
code to see what I can come up with, but as such it is not a simple fix and is 
added to my to-do list. There are higher priority items though, so I do not 
have a timeline for this.

This will be fixed when the builders free up so I can restart jenkins. XDG* is 
was not set. So things should improve after restart.

This will require more time to research.

Thanks!
