What about it doesn't work? If Motif is the only library that's statically linked then you still need to arrange for the other R6 shared libs to be resolved at run-time. Unless you install the R6 libraries an application linked against them won't work with the R5 libraries because the library major versions changed. If you install the R6 libraries somewhere besides /usr/X386/lib then make certain that you rerun ldconfig, and don't forget to update your /etc/rc.local file so that ldconfig does the right thing the next time you reboot. Non-root users can also use the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable to help the run-time loader find new libraries in "non-standard" locations until the sysadmin reruns ldconfig. I know no one would say something silly like R6 apps can't run with an R5 server. -- Kaleb KEITHLEY
