Eek!

I am seeing exactly the same problem with Squeak 4.5, and it is happening
with both Cog and the standard interpreter VM.

I am using a laptop running Ubuntu. It's hard to believe that nobody would
have noticed this before, so maybe it is specific to the hardware or graphics
drivers.

Gustavo, thanks for bringing this up, and sorry for not paying attention to
your earlier posts. There is certainly a problem here, and it is not related
to Scratch. It also does not seem to be related to any specific version of
the VM. So I'm not sure what is going on here.

Who else is seeing this problem, and on what platform and VM?

Open Squeak, use the full-screen icon on the upper right to put it into full
screen mode, click it again to go back. The result for me is a white screen
and no further response from the image.
