Dear Alexey,
I'm using TeX Live in Ubuntu 14.04 also. The \widowpenalty
command in your file works correctly for me. I get two lines at the top
of page 2 before the next paragraph begins. If I comment out
\widowpenalty I get only one line at the top of page 2 before the next
paragraph begins.
However, when I upgraded to Ubuntu 14.04 from Ubuntu 12.04, TeX
did not get installed correctly. I had to reinstall TeX as a separate
package later. Maybe something similar happened in your case.
Sincerely,
Nicholas

Hi all,
I have recently installed Ubuntu 14.04, which includes XeTeX v.
3.14159265-2.6-0.99991 (TeX Live 2014/Debian) and noticed that
compiling my current project produces some incorrect line breaks.
My investigations have shown that XeTeX seems to ignore the current
\widowpenalty value (\clubpenalty is respected though). Here's a
minimal example (lipsum paragraphs are selected so that the desired
number of lines is produced):
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\widowpenalty=10000
\begin{document}
\lipsum[1-4]
\lipsum[37]
\lipsum[1]
\end{document}
In my tests a widow line is produced at the second page despite the
\widowpenalty setting. Processing the same file with luaTeX gives the
correct result, i. e. an additional line of the paragraph is moved to
the second page.
Can anybody test if this problem is specific for my Ubuntu installation?
