Somehow I'm stuck here. The latest vm that can handle a trunk image
won't run on my linux notebook and on the WindowXP notebook I get a strange behavior. Although the image, changes and sources files are in place, the vm keeps telling me, that it can't find the image file?! Is it because I "only" have an admin account on that machine? All permissions seem to be right. Regards, Alex |

Make sure you have the 3.11.3 Windows VM and that you drag and drop the image onto that VM. As for the UUID problem, this seems to be a known issue on some Linux variants. I recommend removing the UUIDPlugin library if you can (I don't know if it's built internal or external) and if you can't, comment out the UUID>>primMakeUUID primitive. Cheers, - Andreas |

Yes, the UUIDPlugin is built as an external plugin, so deleting the plugin (i.e. remove file /usr/local/lib/squeak/3.10-6/UUIDPlugin) is a workaround. It would be good if someone can think of a less awkward workaround; perhaps it's possible to static link to a known good version of libuuid? Dave |

I installed Squeak for the first time on that machine, like on many
other WindowsXP machines, even in far more restricted environments, and never had this kind of problem before. Direct Drag&Drop does not help. On Drag&Drop the Windows FileChooser pops up, but not on the directory the dropped image lives in, but on the last directory that was chosen with this Dialog?! Selecting an image with it results in the same error message... Anyway I can play with the trunk image using the linux machine now (once I get the updates via the flaky campground wifi :} ).
