IDL on FreeBSD [message #28096]

I wonder if anyone had any success installing IDL on FreeBSD.
The system:

IBM T20 running FreeBSD 4.4
Display card : S3 model graphics accelerator
IDL Version : 5.5

The problem:

a) A displayed image gets eaten up if moved from one part of the
screen to another. In other words, when you move an image it is not
refreshed. So if you move the image to the centre of the screen those
portions that were under other windows are just blank spaces.

b) I can not get the online help to work. It brings up an error
message saying that "No selection is avaliable. Unable to execute the
command"

Can any one offfer help. Thanks.
