Hi,
There was once talk about a creating extensions to VM such that it can display straight to the Linux Framebuffer (no need for X).
Any pointers where I can get that VM from?
I saw the 'configure' options of 3.6/7 VMs but didn't find anything appropriate.

I think the latest Linux VMs are ready made for use on a Framebuffer. I don't know how up to date the info is, but maybe [1] can be of help.

If you are using Ian's 3.7-7 vm (which you may get from http://squeak.hpl.hp.com/unix/ ) you can try this:
squeak -vm-display-fbdev YOURIMAGE.image

Thanks for the tip...

try running squeak with this command line: (or something similar)
squeak --vm-display-fbdev --vtswitch
