The later the Squeak VM version the better. On the XO we ship a VM
built from the olpc branch of svn, with some enhancements and
additions, but all changes are expected to be folded back into the
trunk:
http://www.squeakvm.org/svn/squeak/branches/olpc/
The enhancements are not strictly necessary for running Etoys (a
regular Squeak VM would be okay too), but provide better system
integration (for example, the X11 drag-and-drop support is much
improved).
