Yes, it does. The same image runs wonderfully with a 2.3b VM, that's why I
think it's a VM issue, not something image-related.

$DISPLAY is correctly set (the window actually appears, but only with a
black background)

Ok, thanks for your help so far. Carl Gruden said that he also replaced
some of the VM support files for his build; I will recheck what I used.

Since it doesn't seem to be a general problem, I encourage you to mail me
your suggestions privately so as not to clog the list.
