Hi all.

I just installed XFree2.1 from gatekeeper.dec.com, and ran into
unexpected troubble.

When I try to run startx I get this:
startx
No ld.so
No ld.so

Seem like there is something missing somewhere.

I installed the standard NetBSD 0.9 distribution, and selected the
"static" directory when downloading XFree 2.1

Do anyone know where I can find a distribution of XFree 2.1 that does
not require shared lib support?, or alternatively where I can find the
bits I miss to get shared lib support?

Please, I'd really like to see X running on my laptop!!!!


Anyone?
