It is actually working very well on my Linux Workstation connected to Citrix. All I need is to follow/edit/create defects. So I am not using too much advanced features. It just prints a warning message at login: "A call to an OS function failed". Must be the Windows' random crash library because it does not explode too often...

Nirav, I think you are mistaking Quality Center for an issue tracking system (that's only a feature of it). Most places will not use QC for issue tracking, only TC creation and management. As you said, Bugzilla, Jira are better for that.

Using this app is suffering from my sins. God save our kind from HP Quality Center.

I couldn't agree more! We are currently using this app and you've hit it spot on! Especially the part about thinking that the file is still in use after a crash.
