    Aha - for some reason the setup was
    b$ ls -lt libX11*
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Feb 10 10:54 libX11.so.6 -> libX11.so.6.2
    -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 813680 Dec 15 19:18 libX11.so.6.2

    is no link from libX11.so

    After adding sym link myself it seems to pick up -lX11 no probs.

    However, it now cannot get -lXext presumably since there is no
    libXext.so link to the actual files...

    this sounds like, somehow, the whole of X11R6/lib is incorrectly set up
    any suggestions as to how come and how to sort it out (as far as I can
    recall (but how to double chk?) I've not messed with this dir at all....

    cheers, Michael
