Hi Eamonn, you have to add the following to the file /etc/ld.so.conf /usr/X11R6/lib Since you don't have an running editor, you can do this as follows (become root user): # cd /etc # echo "/usr/X11R6/lib" >> ld.so.conf # ldconfig -v Now the vim (and other editors) should work. If not, let me know. BTW, this is a known bug in the Debian destribution. When this will be solved? -- Karlheinz Nolte, VS/ETB5, ALCATEL SEL AG D-70430 Stuttgart, Germany Tel.: +49-711-821-41834 mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
