I can relate to that.  I've been loging in as root.  I got into x config and ran 
that program.  When I entered startx from root, I got the following error message.

ld.so failed  can't find shared library "libxmu.so.6.0"

Do I have to run startx from /usr/x11r6/bin?  Do I have to login as a user other 
than root?

I told you I was green. ;-)

Paul
