[comp.windows.x] Copying X11R4 from one Sparc to another - help !!

rao@gabber.kodak.com (Dr. Arun Rao) (12/07/90)

	We have a problem which is probably trivial.  We are trying
	to copy the entire X11R4 tree from one machine to another, but
	get the following error when "startx" is initiated:

	ld.so: libXmu.so.4 not found

	We've tried a few obvious things, but nothing successfully.
	Any help is appreciated.

	Thanks in advance.

What obvious things?  RTFAQ.  run ldconfig on the target machine.

Did you run ldconfig?  It should be run when shared objects are installed (or reinstalled).
