Hi, I'm having difficulties running several applications with my 2.1.6-RELEASE FreeBSD system. For example, when I try to start up the fvwm X Windows manager, I get this error message: ld.so failed: Can't find shared library "libXpm.so.4.6" Again with X Windows emacs-19.14 I get another error: ld.so failed: Can't find shared library "libgcc.so.261.0" I searched all over my system files and could not find any lib files with libXpm or libgcc. Also, I believe I received a similar error message when trying to use xv. Since I couldn't find any of these required libraries, I searched the ftp.freebsd.com site, but wasn't able to find them. Can you please point me to the exact ftp site and relative directory or full path where I could locate and download these libraries? Also, do you know if I'd need any other lib files for such applications as I've described. By the way, I installed my system with the ftp over the network option, so the installation might have missed some lib files needed for X Windows. Thank you very much for any help, Daniel bord@cruzio.com
