It's a guess but I think you can have --without-npsqueak and *at the same time* graphical display. See that you get "configure:26825: result: ******** disabling vm-display-X11" as a result of your compilation and also a complain about the inhability to find the "vm-display-X11" driver. We have the installation procedure documented (in Spanish) here: http://www.el-directorio.org/Squeak/Instalacion#head-1575ffc64426e6e4adec2c3d873b422ef2f43c62 Notice the root permissions to run the install script, for better results. My test machine for building that doc was pretty similar to yours (with an older Ubuntu, but this is not a big deal) Cheers, Offray [...] > > Help!
