Thanks for the quick response and a bit of an apology.

This was a typing error on my part. I in fact did follow the 
instructions in the README file, each time I thought I had an 
environment that would work with the LCD.

I have been working on and off for about four weeks to try and eliminate 
all possible sources of the problem which are within my limited 
knowledge and experience to determine. Though my experience with Linux 
is primarily as an applications user, (I chucked Windows for home use 
several years ago.) I did enlist some assistance from a friend, a KDE 
developer, who mainly helped me with the dependencey problems to get an 
environment that seemed clean. (He was able to recognize the libraries 
needed based on the routines reported missing.)

It has been a useful exercise in increasing my level of knowledge is 
several areas of Linux and the PIC tools but I am up against a wall now.

cheers,
Malcolm
