You are the bombs. Gaim worked. I'll look at the ayttm also to see if I would like that one better. Should I be concerned about them conflicting? Basically it all boils down to: I got the same error message that you got, Fernan: /usr/X11R6/libexec/aim: error while loading shared libraries: libXprt.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory BTW can I get a gaim icon placed somewhere? I suppose that's not a ports question, and I probably could find the answer in the FreeBSD manual. If you force me to go search for the answer in there, I don't suppose I could hate you for it ;) Peace, Thanks again, Ryan ------------------------ Also, just for reference or if you're interested: 1) > > Then I tried the "rehash" command like it suggested in the online manual, but that > > didn't change the situation. > And the error was ? No error, it had just given me another command prompt immediately. 2) > In the shell in which you did rehash, do a: > ls -l `which aim` > and then > `which aim` > If it doesn't run after the second command then send us the output of > the first. Here's what happened ("infinia" is me): infinia# ls -l 'which aim' ls: which aim: No such file or directory infinia# 'which aim' which aim: Command not found. infinia# which aim /usr/X11R6/bin/aim infinia# ls -l which aim ls: aim: No such file or directory ls: which: No such file or directory infinia# 3) > Perhaps you refer to the files and folders that are in > /usr/ports/net/aim/work/*? yeah that's what it was Peace Ryan
