I have been trying to run the Ham Radio program XLog and looks like it is calling a file by the wrong name, or else the file is missing.

It says cannot open shared object file libXrandr.so.2

Thought I had copied the name wrong but went back and checked and that's what it said, "rand" not "rend".

Did find libXrender.so.1 and libXrender.so.1.2 so maybe it should have called one of them ?

I'm new to Linux so excuse me if I'm missing something obvious.

Thanks, Jerry

You should find that in a gtk2 extension.

Are you refering to gtk2-0705.dsl ?

thanks, Jerry

It, or any other one should do

..or you can copy it out of the cairo-1.2.uci extension

It's also in the xorg extension

I sent you an email on that missing lib, Jerry,

If you still have issues getting it running, let me know,
and I'll send you the 2 files and instructions on where
to place them, and how to deal with adding them to your OS.

Once you add the lib(s) in question, and get past the error
messages, you may find you have others missing.

Did you try roberts suggestion, and add the gtk2 extension?
