> Greetings, > Using Marcus's instructions, I have been working to get X running on my hurd box. After some careful work, I think have everything configured and running. However, I have hit a snag. When I type "startx", I get a complaint that the Hurd can't open or find libXmu.so.6, but when I do a locate on that file, it shows up: > /X11R6/lib/libXmu.so.6 > It appears that it is a symlink to libXmu.so.6.0 > > The file is owned by root and shows the following permissions: > -rw-r--r-- > > Does anybody have any ideas as to where my problem may reside? BTW, I get a similar problem when if I type XF86Setup. It complains about not finding libXaw.so.6 which I find also. The problem is prolly because ldconfig doesn't work in the Hurd (er, or something to that effect); you have to explicitly set the path to X libs. Something like: $export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/X11R6/lib (better to put it on .bashrc) Hope this helps, best regards, Frederico S. Mu�oz [EMAIL PROTECTED]
