Hey everyone, thanks for reaching out to us on the Dropbox Community.
As Rich also mentions, the OS you're running isn't currently a fully tested or supported environment for the Dropbox desktop app.
As such, we're not able to offer much on this, until it is one of our supported OSes.
You can find more about this, here.
Let us know if you have any other questions in the meantime, thanks!
