Can you give me the details of the error log in the console for this 
version?
Could it be a problem with the video drivers and mesa?
I had this issue at some point.
Could you try to use:

export MESA_GL_VERSION_OVERRIDE=3.0 ; /path/to/scilab-nightly/bin/scilab

instead of

  /path/to/scilab-nightly/bin/scilab

?

It solved my problems for a while.
No with some later updates, I no longer have this driver issue¹.

Hope it helps,

Antoine
¹ By the way, matlab suffer exactly the same problem on my machine, and 
I used the very same fix.
