It says this file "contains all necessary files", so I downloaded it:
http://gforge.inria.fr/frs/download.php/26828/Pharo-1.0-OneClick.zip
It says "run the executable".  I don't know what executable it's
referring to, so I'm trying Pharo.sh

When I do, I get:
 could not find module vm-display-X11

I've done general searches as well as searches through the Pharo forum
and mailing lists.  I haven't seen anyone else with this problem, so I'm
still not sure what to do and I need help.

I'm running Linux i686.. it's only a release candidate distro (Unity
Linux), so I wouldn't be surprised to learn that there are
distro/library issues.

I can give additional system information if you need.  The website
doesn't mention any dependencies, but could I be missing some?

I see a section for "Custom downloads".

The instructions say:
To run Pharo you need an image, changes, and a sources file, as well as
a VM for your platform. When downloads are completed, uncompress all
files and put them into the same directory (this directory should then
contain a .image, .changes, and a .sources file). Then start the VM.

I downloaded these files:
Image and Changes:
http://gforge.inria.fr/frs/download.php/26790/Pharo-1.0.zip
Sources:
https://gforge.inria.fr/frs/download.php/24391/PharoV10.sources.zip
Virtual Machine:
http://gforge.inria.fr/frs/download.php/24736/pharo-vm-0.15.2f-linux.zip

I unzipped them all into the same directory.

Pharo-1.0.zip already had a PharoV10.sources within it, so I used the
one from PharoV10.sources.zip

I see these files in the same directory:
 Pharo-1.0.image
 Pharo-1.0.changes
 PharoV10.sources

I don't know what to do now, there are no instructions for running
Pharo after those steps.

I've done a lot of playing outside of the above steps, but I'm
completely ignorant of how Pharo is installed (or compiled?) and run.
So far it's nothing like the other software I've used.

Any advice is appreciated.  I'm also willing to try a LiveCD of any
Linux/BSD distro if that'll help me get Pharo working more easily.  My
goal here is just to check Pharo out, so I could deal with using another
distro temporarily.
