Beware! I had pulled down the src rpm from:
ftp://st.cs.uiuc.edu/Smalltalk/Squeak/3.0/unix-linux/x86linux/RPMs/
and was led to believe that gcc3 was required to build the VM. This basically led to 4 days of pain and frustration until someone else pointed out "gcc-3.x bad, gcc-2.96 good" (Thanks Ned!).
I have a working VM built from SF sources.
Also, be careful, if you start with the 3.0 vm/image and try to apply all the updates, it just blows up somepoint after warning you that a new VM is required...

The same happened to me. I also knew about the 3.0 rpm but I needed 3.2gamma to keep group convention.
So, I decided to give it another try, I downloaded the .orig.tar.gz from the debian's ftp... and tried the configure, etc. ritual again, and this time it worked! Live and learn. :)
The only thing I did different was to have a "build" directory and typed the commands from there. That way I didn't get any errors - when I cd(ed) all the way up to /misc and then ./configure I got one error sqXWindow-something (more or less). So as it happens most of the times in this cases, (to me anyhow), it was a really stupid really small detail. Sorry about that.
Now I have Squeak3.2gamma up and running in Linux Mandrake 8.2. It looks a bit different and I have to get used to just one button and no scrool wheel, but it works! :D
Thank you all for the help.

There is only a 'debian'. I have SPARC Solaris 2.8. What do I do? Or is it too soon to try 3.2?
No, 3.2 is pretty soon officially blessed I think so it is quite ok right now, it is IMHO not too soon to try it. But you don't need a new VM for that - the 3.0 will do fine. I use the Debian packages (3.0 VM) with 3.2 (and 3.3alpha) images regularly. Ok, Richard wrote that not you... whatever.
There's a tarball with the sources as well - it should contain the full
code
you need to build a VM. Please upload the result when you built it ;-)
Yes please! I can only say that I am even newbi-er in Linux! and that the building the VM process is a bit, well, scary.
It's not that tricky but the Swiki page could use some more explicit explaining. I will see if I can add some, I have recently gotten my machine to build from SF. Yiha.
We've been testing Nebraska and the EtoyListener and Sender at SqueakRos, sending live objects thru an intranet from and to Windows/Mac systems!! We'd love to test it in Linux too.
I know that an rpm would be too much to ask :D ... but could some good and kind soul please (please) upload a VM for Linux Intel? I guarantee this action will give you good karma for at least a week. :)
There are RPMs (3.0) available: http://www.csc.tntech.edu/~skhanna/RPMs/Squeak/squeak.php ftp://st.cs.uiuc.edu/Smalltalk/Squeak/3.0/unix-linux/x86linux/RPMs/
And as I said, these should work with 3.x images.
