I finally got Wordperfect to work on my newly installed Slink system - thanks primarily to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I needed to install xlib6 out of the oldlibs directory (as well as libc5 - which I knew about), and libXpm (I think it was) also from oldlibs. Thanks also to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] for their input. I was very confused by fact that it said it couldn't find libXt.so.6 - when I could see this was installed. But it was smarter than I thought as it knew this was an incompatible (newer) version. When I tried to force it to use this - by putting it's path in LD_LIBRARY_PATH I got a segmentation fault. I am very pleased to have finally put that problem to bed. Thanks.
