: I had recently install XFree86-3.1.1 with Xserver XF86_Mach64.  When Itry to
: startx.  The system reported to me the message: ld.so:xinit: libXmu.so.6.0
: File
: or directory not found.  Can anybody tell me where can I get the
: libXmu.so.6.0

XFree86 3.1.1 should have come with libXmu.so.6.0.  It should be in 
/usr/X11R6/lib.  If it isn't there then you probably didn't install the 
XFree lib archive, called XF311lib.tar.gz (or something like that).

If /usr/X11R6/lib/libXmu.so.6.0 exists, then you simply forgot to do this: 

  ldconfig /usr/X11R6/lib

That tells the dynamic linker where the X Window System libraries are
located.  This command should be in your /etc/rc file if you plan to use X
regularly.
