Hi,
I tried this unfortunately to no avail. Where did you get the compatibility
files. I certianly have /lib/ld-2.0.7 installed.
this is the error I get
/usr/local/rsi/idl_5.2/bin/bin.linux/idlde: error in loading shared libraries
/lib/libc.so.6: undefined symbol: _dl_initial_searchlist

thanks,
John
