Yes, it must have been Squeak, it's VM is capable of displaying to the
Linux framebuffer.
I had run tests on it around 2002~3, looked good, but crashed often.

Once I tested it, not sure was Squeak or Pharo, running under the

So your basic workstation can just be a Console only Linux (no X
window).

Hello,
While I am still waiting for my copy of the PBE, I would like to
initiate work on a project (along with friends).
The idea is to build a minimalist Linux based system which would boot
up
straight into a full-screen Pharo environment.
The system itself would be single user, consisting of not more than a
Linux kernel, a few system utilities (busybox?), X (KDrive?) and Pharo
(vm + image + ...).
Would like to know if it's some how possible to control external
programs from within Pharo, essentially shell scripts for network
setup,
etc.
Thanks,
~Mayuresh
