Well, if that works with the PC/Linux, that's probably just a X11 
problem.
You could try to set the default to explicitely remove the shm use:

defaults write NSGlobalDomain XWindowBufferUseXShm NO

normally, the lack of SHM support should be detected automatically, 
but there
is perhaps a problem with the X11 implementation of the NCD or with the
detecting code on the GNUstep side.
