Here's a brief bit of background on the situation. I am running 3.0-RELEASE and XFree86 Version 3.3.2.3. The first time I tried to run Netscape, I got the following error: ld.so failed libXt.so.6.0 not found. I searched the mail list archives and found that others had had similar problems. I saw that one guy recommended the following as a fix: # ldconfig -aout -m /usr/X11R6/lib/aout Well that gave the error that /var/run/ld.so.hints wasn't found. So, then I ran # ldconfig -aout This helped in that the command ldconfig -aout -r works. Then I ran # ldconfig -aout -m /usr/X11R6/lib That completed successfully. Then I ran # ldconfig -aout -m /usr/X11R6/lib/aout ldconfig: /usr/X11R6/lib/aout: No such file or directory Sure enough, /usr/X11R6/lib/aout doesn't exist. Hmm, well, a bunch has changed, let's try to run netscape again. # netscape ld.so failed: bad magic number in "/usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so.6.0" Well, being relatively new to this, I don't know what to do next. Any help is appreciated, of course. Eric Patterson To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
