I use the current version of Io on cygwin, linux, and Mac.  As far as I 
know, Socket isn't broken.  There's probably an issue with your code.

Here's a sample server implementation that I wrote (it sets up a server 
that acts as a RPN calculator):

Which linux distro are you using, Ubuntu?  If so, I have a package 
pre-built which has a working version of Socket (assuming you have 
libevent installed).  It's actually linked on the Io homepage, or at the 
iobin project page (http://iobin.suspended-chord.info/).

Best of luck, I'll help with what I can.
