Bert: I have done exactly what you said in other mail:
$ svn co http://squeakvm.org/svn/squeak/branches/olpc squeak-vm $ cd squeak-vm/platforms/unix $ make $ sudo make install
... which installs in /usr/local
And works perfect!!!
However, I have a question. In the link I see this VM is under "olpc". Is this correct?
Yes. The OLPC "XO" laptop is a regular Linux machine so that VM works fine on any Linux. There is only one OLPC-specific change in there, the rest is bug fixes and improvements. All of this will be merged back to the main VM when time permits.

Usually the VM / OS ignores the alpha channel of the display. But with composite window managers on Linux, it is honored, and the bug is exposed.
This is a VM problem and has a fix, as already discussed previously:

Thanks Bert. I wonder what would need to happen for this fix to be included in the compiled VM's most people use.
