2.0 has so many bugs, that I would really recommend just building latest
version from Mercurial.  On most Linux distros, it's pretty trivial
(install cmake & sdl devel package, configure && make).

With which:
- Atari configuration
- Linux distro
- SDL version
?

For example, TOS 2.06 US version shows following on console with every
key press & mouse click, if it's started with ST instead of STE:
Bus Error at address $ffff8a00, PC=$e014f6 addr_e3=e014f8 op_e3=4a68

By "press OK", do you mean:
* Pressing Enter/Return key, or
* Clicking on the OK button with mouse
?

I've never seen issues with Hatari options menu opening/closing.

Where did you get your build?  Are you sure you it doesn't have some
issue with build / timestamp mismatch, i.e. can the issue be
reproduced after doing:
	make clean && make
?

Does it happen also if you actually do some change before pressing OK?

What if you select "Reset machine" before pressing OK?
