�� you need to /save/ the image having applied��Smalltalk vm maxExternalSemaphoresSilently: 3000. ��This must be set in the image at start-up, not after the image has loaded. ��i.e. the VM inspects the value saved in the image header and applies the value *before* the image starts running.

Ok, I'm back having time to look at this problem and I made a start.st
script below, start the image with it, but get the same blank screen as
you can see in attached screenshot. Ctrl or Alt . doesn't help.

start.st
Smalltalk vm maxExternalSemaphoresSilently: 3000

./Contents/Linux/squeak ./Contents/Resources/waste.image start.st

Any more idea? Otherwise I'll start to recover from changes, but
starting this nonresponsive image would of course be faster solution:)

Best regards
Janko
