Another fix is to do the following: 1) Add the following line to /usr/compat/linux/etc/ld.so.conf: /usr/X11R6/lib 2) Re-run /usr/compat/linux/sbin/ldconfig. This will cause the runtime ELF linker cache for the Linuxolator to be regenerated with the location of the Linux X11 libraries added to the search path, and thus the libraries should then appear in the cache. You should then be able to run acroread, realplayer etc. without further problems, even after a reboot.
