    Dear Sizheng Zhu,

    You may need to add /usr/openwin/lib to your LD_LIBRARY_PATH. You can
    do this in your .login file:

      setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/openwin/lib

    If LD_LIBRARY_PATH is already set to something, then just add
    /usr/openwin/lib to the end of the path, and add a colon between path
    names. For example:

      setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/dt/lib:/usr/openwin/lib

    For this change to take effect, you either need to source the .login
    file, or log out and log back in again.
