You must not run squeak as root unless you have a really good reason to 
do so.

If it won't start on your unprivileged account, then you're probably 
trying to use a heartbeat VM without enabling its use of higher thread 
priorities.

To enable that on linux, you have to create the file 
/etc/security/limits.d/squeak.conf as root with the following contents:
*       hard    rtprio  2
*       soft    rtprio  2

After that you have to start a new user session (log in again/restart your 
machine/etc) for the changes to take effect.
