This is what I have on my hamm + misc. slink system: % ldd /usr/local/matlab5/bin/lnx86/matlab libXpm.so.4 => /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libXpm.so.4 (0x4000b000) libXt.so.6 => /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libXt.so.6 (0x40019000) libXext.so.6 => /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libXext.so.6 (0x4005b000) libX11.so.6 => /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libX11.so.6 (0x40066000) libtermcap.so.2 => /lib/libtermcap.so.2 (0x40104000) libdl.so.1 => /lib/libdl.so.1 (0x40108000) libg++.so.27 => /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libg++.so.27 (0x4010b000) libstdc++.so.27 => /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libstdc++.so.27 (0x40143000) libm.so.5 => /lib/libm.so.5 (0x40174000) libc.so.5 => /lib/libc.so.5 (0x4017d000) libSM.so.6 => /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libSM.so.6 (0x4023b000) libICE.so.6 => /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libICE.so.6 (0x40244000) You will need xpm4.7, xlib6, libg++27, and maybe termcap-compat. This works great for me. The ld.so library loader automagically knows which libraries to call. -- Brian --------------------------------------------------------------------- "Never criticize anybody until you have walked a mile in their shoes, because by that time you will be a mile away and have their shoes." - unknown Mechanical Engineering [EMAIL PROTECTED] Purdue University http://www.ecn.purdue.edu/~servis ---------------------------------------------------------------------
