I looked into the >lib area under X11R4 and it has libXmu.so.4.0. I had the problem which was solved by article <134870@sun.Eng.Sun.COM> from (J. Nisewanger, Sun Microsystems, Inc.). There is a security restriction in the run-time shared library linker that causes it to only look in /usr/lib and /usr/5lib if the program has the setuid or setgid permission bits set (such as xterm & xload). You have at least 3 options: 1. move the shared libraries into /usr/lib, /usr/5lib or /usr/local/lib 2. link setuid and setgid programs with the static version of the libraries. 3. I've heard that you can add symbolic links to /usr/lib that point at the shared libraries although I haven't personally tried this. I used solution 1 which worked fine. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Adrian Alleyne email: alleyne@teecs.UUCP Litton Systems Canada Limited voice: (416) 249-1231 Etobicoke, Ont.
