A bunch of lobbying on my part coaxed Ian into finishing the framebuffer
driver for Squeak so you don't even need to run x'doze at all to use
Squeak. For example, on my server I run the Swiki server in framebuffer
mode to conserve the 384mb of ram I have in the machine. =P

Lemme go look at the script I use.

"
squeak -vm-display-fbdev -vtswitch
"

issues: the mouse isn't very responsive and the video made is left in a
very sub-optimal state. =\

Furthermore, since the VM is very very unreliable, you're apt to crash
yourself within twenty minutes. =(
