I'd tried installing Poplog under SuSE Linux Professional 7.3, following
the installtion instructions, in the readme on the CS Scholl CDROM.
Logged in as root, I checked for open motif, yep its there, all three
name appear. Create the directory where to install extract to. Then when
extracted, make the directory to install to etc etc. When it comes to
running the install script "./INSTALL_MOTIF_POPLOG" I get what appears
to be a lot of error messages in the terminal, see below:

I typed rehash, as it says, then tried poplog pop11 +bhamxved and i get
another error message:
> pop11: error while loading shared libraries: libtermcap.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No

Any help as to how to get it to install and run properly would be
appriciated.
