[pdp-discuss] Linux Problem

[Brad Aisa]

Hi Reza,

Sorry you're having difficulties. Randy (who did the pdp v3.2 
installer) may commment as well, but I thought I might be able 
to help...

Before trying to start pdp at the console, try typing this first:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/pdp++/lib/LINUX

If that works, then you can add this to your .bashrc file in your 
home folder:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/pdp++/lib/LINUX

if you already have a LD_LIBRARY_PATH in that file, you can add 
as follows (i.e., put the new stuff, then a colon, then the 
existing stuff)

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/pdp++/lib/$CPU:existingstuff
