If I try to install tuxracer from 7.3 it is asking for some libraries of which libtcl.so.0 I can not find anywhere. Chromium is asking as well for several libraries which I can't find at all except for zlib.... Doing ldd /usr/X11R6/bin/xscreensaver I see that there is a library libcrypt.so.1 which is being asked by chromium and I cannot see on the install CDs of RH7.3. ldd /usr/bin/tuxracer libSM.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6 (0x40026000) libICE.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libICE.so.6 (0x4002f000) libX11.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 (0x40046000) libXi.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXi.so.6 (0x40126000) libXext.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6 (0x4012e000) libXmu.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXmu.so.6 (0x4013c000) libXt.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so.6 (0x40152000) libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x401a0000) libtcl8.3.so => /usr/lib/libtcl8.3.so (0x401a4000) libSDL-1.1.so.0 => /usr/lib/libSDL-1.1.so.0 (0x4022b000) libpthread.so.0 => /lib/i686/libpthread.so.0 (0x40299000) libSDL_mixer-1.1.so.0 => /usr/lib/libSDL_mixer-1.1.so.0 (0x402ae000) libGL.so.1 => /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 (0x402e8000) libGLU.so.1 => /usr/lib/libGLU.so.1 (0x4054a000) libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 => /usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 (0x4055e000) libm.so.6 => /lib/i686/libm.so.6 (0x405a2000) libc.so.6 => /lib/i686/libc.so.6 (0x405c6000) libartsc.so.0 => /usr/lib/libartsc.so.0 (0x406f6000) libesd.so.0 => /usr/lib/libesd.so.0 (0x406fc000) libaudiofile.so.0 => /usr/lib/libaudiofile.so.0 (0x40703000) libsmpeg-0.4.so.0 => /usr/lib/libsmpeg-0.4.so.0 (0x40714000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000) ldd /usr/X11R6/bin/xscreensaver libXmu.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXmu.so.6 (0x40026000) libSM.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6 (0x4003c000) libICE.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libICE.so.6 (0x40045000) libXt.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so.6 (0x4005c000) libX11.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 (0x400a9000) libXext.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6 (0x40189000) libpam.so.0 => /lib/libpam.so.0 (0x40197000) libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x401a0000) libcrypt.so.1 => /lib/libcrypt.so.1 (0x401a4000) libc.so.6 => /lib/i686/libc.so.6 (0x401d2000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000) rhw@InfraDead.Org said: > You will find that the glibc library is common to every program on > your system There is no glibc or is it the same as libc. ray@comarre.com said: > A.

I found it only in xsceensaver, tuxracer and chromium which might not exclude others I have not tried. Gnucash, gnumeric, mozilla, opera, staroffice, Xephem all worked with no problem. B. My mainboard is P6STMT with a SiS630ET chipset which includes integrated built-in video, audio, networking and communication capabilities. X server ??? I guess there was no change. C. When the keybord locks the system seems still to be running. In chromium the mouse arrow can still be seen moving yet does not respond to clicking and the chromium background music continues playing. In xscreensaver blank screen, no mouse movement to be seen, time announcement still working. In tuxracer all blank, no music, nothing. I can't answer the other questions since I am scared to reinstall RH7.3. There is no LAN.
