squeak: could not find any display driver
by stes 31 Mar '20

O.S. : Solaris 11.4 (for amd64 / x64 intel) I'm trying the (old? 32bit) vm for Solaris from : http://squeakvm.org/unix/ The following works fine on Solaris 11.4 (installation as ordinary user, not root) : # Squeak-4.10.2.2614-solaris2.11_i386.sh -prefix=$HOME/squeak/ Installing Squeak-4.10.2.2614 for solaris2.11_i386 Then when trying to start the VM I get on this Solaris instance (which is a virtual instance running on a virtualisation software KVM / ovirtengine using VNC) : # bin/squeak.sh unix-4.10.2.image CHECKING cogvm which: no cogvm in (/usr/bin:/bin) CHECKING squeakvm *squeak: could not find any display driver* Abort (core dumped) When I set the X DISPLAY to a remote X server it works, I mean : bin/squeak.sh unix-4.10.2.image in that case does not issue a "could not find any display driver" and on the remote X server I can use the Squeak 4.10 environment (running on Solaris 11.4) How can I see which display driver it is missing or trying to use ?? -- Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Smalltalk-VM-Beginners-f3068605.html

current vm for Solaris ?

The VM from several years ago still seems to work very well on Solaris 11.4 (amd64/intel64), however what VMs should work fine in a UNIX environment like this and be able to run Squeak images more recent that 4.10 ?? The http://squeakvm.org/unix/ is something that I found browsing through the various VMs that are around, and it works, so that is great, but what other VMs could I test/try on Solaris 11.4 ?? -- Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Smalltalk-VM-Beginners-f3068605.html
