This time in Squeak 4.6, released in July, 2015 (4.0 was released in March, 2010). It’s 32-bit, so I had a bunch of libraries to install into a container before I could get this going.
And another, this time in Squeak 3.9, released in Mar, 2008 (3.0 was released in June, 2001). I quite like the Unix-like handles on the corners of the windows, and the same handles for resizing splits.
Once again, now in Squeak 2.8, released in August, 2000 (2.0 was released in May, 1998). Now I know where the assortment of window border colours came from! This seems to be the last version to use the eponymous MVC-based user interface. I love left-hand scrollbars. Morphic is available as a preview. No unit testing classes.
I would have liked to have also taken a look at versions 1.1–1.3 tonight but I can’t find versions of the VM which both compile and are compatible with the image formats. 😤
Going back to Squeak 2.8… by default it displays in 8-bit colour, and results in every colour being translucent. You can make things out if you place it over a dark background. It also does this in 16-bit. It’s fine in 32-bit, except for text selections, the background of which become completely transparent.
I do not — and do not want to — know enough about the X windowing system to know why it does this, but since Squeak 3 doesn’t do this, I feel annoyingly compelled to find out why.
I had the same issue on a WinXP VM running in VirtualBox.
I am not sure I was using GNOME, could be KDE too, but pretty sure that it was Xorg.
Try Wayland if you have option to login to Wayland session in login screen.
@amdt
@murtezayesil It’s a Wayland session but the same happens in an X.Org session, so I doubt it’s related to XWayland.
