I found a work around.  If I -
TextBuffer buffer = new TextBuffer(null);
buffer.Text = "Blah Blah Blah";
notes.Buffer = buffer;
- then the text area works on both M$ and LINUX.  Is there something
illegal about just -
notes.Buffer.Text = "Blah Blah Blah";
-  Doesn't a TextView always have a buffer?  You can put a text view on
a dialog, blank, an use it without explicitly creating a buffer,  and
then retrieve its contents. (?)
