"squeak -version" gives me (I compiled the VM from Ian Piumarta's sources)

Okay, part of xdpyinfo's output:

X11 runs in 16 bit mode, the image is also in 16 bit.

Resizing won't help, there is just the garbage. Display depth change: no effect. Hmmm, however, Squeak is there in the process list and even the cursor changes to "Squeak-style" when over the Squeak window.
