That protocol has changed with the advent of color.
Try "fill:fillColor:" as in:

    Display fill: (0 at 0 extent: 10 at 10) fillColor: Color white

Inverting does a bit-invert on each pixel value. In 8-bit color, the
bit patterns for white and black on not bit-inverses
of each other. If you set your display depth to 1, you'll get
the black/white reversal effects discussed in the book.
 
When you get the code working, could you send it to us? It would be
great to include an updated version of this example in an online-tutorial
that follows "A Taste of Smalltalk"!
