Re: libX11.so.6

Mauro,
on many x86_64-linux machines you need to link with /usr/X11R6/lib64. It depends on the version/distro you are using.

I have just installed PETSC on a x86_64-linux machine.

I am at the level of running the first exercises and after "make" and running the ex2.c file in parallel I get the message

"./ex2: error while loading shared libraries: libX11.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"

WHAT SHOULD I DO??
I spent few days with this. Please, help.

PS: I used the link found the file libX11.so.6 in the directory /usr/X11R6/lib. Thus I run configure.py again with the option
--with-x-include=/usr/X11R6/lib
But NO IMPROOVEMENT.

Thank you!
Mauro
