[self-interest] Re: Self at Sourceforge CVS Tree

[Russell Allen]

OK, I have a compiled executable on Ubuntu 8.10.   Woohoo!

At the moment it loads the Demo snapshot, but the desktop doesn't   
come up.

This presumably means that the integration with X11 has gone wrong  
somewhere.

I'll have another try in a few days.

(PS: the Self VM has an enormous amount of debugging info!  strip took  
the VM from 168M -> 1.6M!)
