Very Computer

I've got all the libraries.  I've read all the FAQ's.  I've
applied all the patches.  I'm just getting a can't find '-lX11'
library error after I've done everything to the Makefile I can
think of.

        I found the reference to -lX11 in the Makefile, and at the end
of the line added -l/usr/X11R6/lib.  This still doesn't produce
an exectuable.  If anyone's interested, I've got a script of the
compile, but I'm not posting it here for fear of the space it
would take up, and editing it is going to take a while...
        Anybody got any other ideas about the xv source tree and what it
wants to compile?  All comments appreciated!  I've had lots less
problems compiling my own programs...

I got it running by adding a line to the Makefile at the
beginning of the cc options list:

-L/usr/X11R6/lib

        I also hadda hardwire the paths to the graphics libraries, but
that's alright.  Now Xview can draw improved jpegs and png's!
Unfortunately, the patch I used to get png support evidently
didn't include the ability to make thumbnails in the visual
schnauser.  I'll have to tinker with that...

        Thanks for the info--
