Thanks Olivier You do not experiment UI glitches so this means that it probably depend on the OS version. S

Hi,
The leaders of the Chromebooks are Asus, Acer and HP. I recommend you to choose a recent model with a powerfull x86 processor. Them support Chrome apps, Android apps and Crostini for Linux apps. This last mode allows running Pharo on Chrome OS. Avoid the low cost Chromebooks. The middle price for a good computer is around 600-700 euros.
In my case, I own a HP x360 14 (i5, 8 Go ram, 64 Go SSD, tactile screen, very good autonomy, backlight keyboard and very beautifull computer).
The best vendor in France is Gowizyou that is a Google official partner (https://gowizyou.com <https://gowizyou.com/>). They are very serious and work with administrations, schools, etc. You can buy online on the Gowizyou store.
Best regards Olivier ;-)

What would be a good choice? I know Olivier runs pharo on his without problem, @olivier which Chrome book do you suggest us to buy?

Hi Pablo,
I'm seeing the same thing on a Chromebook "Pixelbook" Crostini (Linux) container:
Debian v9 ("stretch"), Linux kernel 4.9.0-12, recently updated. The system has 8GB RAM & 128GB SSD.
The ChromeOS version in 81.0.4044.141.
I'm running the latest Pharo Launcher, 2.0-2020.04.07, VM 5.0-202002121043.
Just opening Pharo Launcher, and without even launching an image, I'm seeing the same tearing and rendering problems as Jan. If I open the Settings dialog, it partially renders, and when I try to move the window, I get the tearing behavior.
And I was also able to run PL & images on this platform without problems in the past. (It's been at least a month since I tried running Pharo on a Chromebook.)
