One day I attempted to get xinerama and XFree86 4.0.1 working on my box. I copied all the files from XF3 to a backup location, attempted to get XF4 up and running. I failed. And since this is my work machine, I needed XF3 back for the following Monday.
I removed the new XF4 stuff, and copied back the old configurations and binaries. Now the sym links are broken and I see error messages like this when I apt-get updates: Setting up libgnomeui32 (1.2.8-helix1) ... ldconfig: warning: /usr/X11R6/lib/libXpm.so.4 is not a symlink ldconfig: warning: /usr/X11R6/lib/libXaw3d.so.6 is not a symlink ldconfig: warning: /usr/X11R6/lib/libXtst.so.6 is not a symlink What is the best way to restore the symlinks? Thanks, Rob.
