I also meet such problem before when I install IDL 6.2 on Ubuntu 7.04;
I downloaded two files (libstdc++.so.5 and libX11.so.6) from internet
and input them to one path on my computer. Then adding following
sentence to
. bashrc:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=(the path of the two files)
then reboot the shell.
I think this problem should be resolved of.
Maybe this not the best solution but I think it will works.
