  Well, there is a vm-display-X11 directory, with the .la file,  in the same directory as the squeak executable. 
I have tried copying the .la file to the same level as the squeak executable but that didn't work. 
I tried the symbolic link but that didn't help either. 

If I try to run squeak from its own directory, I get this...

seasideuser at domU-12-31-39-14-08-6B Linux686]$ ./squeak -plugins .  -encoding latin1 ./Resources/Pharo-1.0.image
could not find display driver vm-display-X11; either:
  - check that /usr/local/lib/squeak/3.10-3/vm-display-X11.so exists, or
  - use the '-plugins <path>' option to tell me where it is, or
  - remove DISPLAY from your environment.


There is no /usr/local/lib/squeak/3.10-3/vm-display-X11.so...and if I put one in...it still does not work

  Yeah, thanks for trying to help me. I guess I'll go haunt the pharo lists. 
It sure is frustrating....
