Assuming you are using a 64-bit (x86_64) Bookworm, try to edit the 
launcher script to launch the binaries like this


exec setarch i386 -X ${ohome}/linux.oberon "$@" -c

That way, the process runs in a 32-bit personality with NX disabled and 
at least for me there are no segfaults that way. (Some X11 graphics 
glitches, but no segfaults).



Hope this helps (anyone),


Michael
