I attached a screenshot of debugger that occurs when I try to install
it.  There are a few interesting things to note:

  1) The difference in the osVersion being checked for ('linux') vs.
what mine is, ('linux-gnu').  This would cause the 'GL' option to be
taken, is that right?

  2) I don't understand why the debugger here -- the Message not being
understood is for class BlockClosure and its selector is a
single-character String of character 0.  I can print the first line of
code but restarting the method did not help, same error, so it appears
to be a stack corruption of some kind..

      ** Oh Wait **
  -- So I just restarted the method and *stepped* through it, it
correctly evaluated "Smalltalk osVersion = 'linux' and then it appears
there is some kind of other hidden block or character in this method,
see TweakCore-debugger2.png.  At the bottom, that little blue square
is the "highlight" and it blows up.
    So I simply removed that, resaved the method and proceed, and then
I got "External Module not Found" and I was able to paste that stack
(see below).

So, trying one more time, I changed that method to eliminate the
hidden character and also to compare to 'linux-gnu' but I still got a
similar error.

So I need to install something on my linux first?  Sorry, I'm kind of
a neophyte with this..  :)

Thanks,
  Chris
