Don There sould be no need to play the logfiles on simply moving to a new system. All that should really be necessary is to copy the data file from one system to the other. If you were using any save reports, these can also be copied. the data file has the format <yourfilename>.gnucash. if you copy that to a suitable location on your new system and then start GnuCash and then use File->Open from the menu to open the datafile you should be good to go.
You should only need to use the backups and restore from the logfiles if GnuCash crashes during operation (very rare on Linux) and corrupts your main data file.
