Problems with emacs
Hey all.
I'm a complete noob to Linux in general, been a Windows bunny until tonight. Just installed Slackware on a spankingly new PC, and I'm having all sorts of fun trying to make things work, and for the most part I'm doing ok. The one thing I haven't been able to problemsolve my way through is emacs. When i try and load it, it throws the following error: Code:
emacs: error while loading shared libraries: libXaw3d.so.8: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Thanks! |
If you want to run emacs only in text-mode ( at the console or inside an xterm ), then cd to
/usr/bin/ , remove the symbolic link 'emacs' and make a new symlink that points to 'emacs-<version>-no-x11'. If you want to use emacs's X11 interface , install the package 'xaw3d-1.5-i486-4.tgz'. |
Many thanks!
That worked perfectly.
Thanks! |
