Hi Herve,
On some really old hardware, even with latest ubuntu, I had problems running applications with Cog. In that cases I found than Stack versions or even old interpreter versions are much more stable. Don't ask me why, just that it happens.
Maybe you can try with some of those vms?
best, Esteban

Hello All,
I am currently try to deploy the 1.4 Pharo CogVm on different linux machines. The underlying aim is to propose a stable linux configuration that will be deployed in our university (for Smalltalk/Pharo lectures and students practice). As far as for now, we have windows workstations on which Pharo (1.3) was installed: during this year, we meet some troubles (Pharo images containing students' work no more readable or crashing all the time :-( ). Students complain...
I really want to seperate VM install (on the workstations) with the image files (on separate students' home directories) that's why the oneClick bundle does not interest me.
I made some tests on different linux machines and I find some problems:
- on a 5 years old machine with a fresh installed latest Ubuntu (v11), the CogVm crashes (segmentation fault)...while the 1.4 oneClick installation is running well. The same install on another but same model machine with the same linux distribution (same version), the CogVm immediately ends with this error Syntax error: "(" unexpected - on a more recent machine with a up-to-date Ubuntu LTS (v10), the CogVm works well
Any advices are welcome and if some of you have linux requirements/specifications don't hesitate to tell me ;-)
