Trying to install DDD, need libXm.so.2

So I went to the collection of repositories at
http://www.qnx.com/developer/community/repositories.html to try to get a
copy of DDD. The first repository, “Contributed Software Repository” has
it. So I installed it, and when I try to run it, I get an error that it
can’t find libXm.so.2. So where can I get this library? I thought it
meant I need to install an X server, so I installed Xfree86 from the
same repository (which took about an hour to download), but that didn’t
work. Can anybody help?

Ok, I installed that, and added /opt/X11R6/lib to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH so
it could find the other library it complained about. And now trying to
launch ddd results in:

Error: Can’t open display: 127.1:0

Clearly the problem is that I’m an X11 newbie who doesn’t know how to
get X apps running :slight_smile: If someone could be so kind as to tell me how to
do this, I would be so grateful.

Error: Can’t open display: 127.1:0

is because you don’t have a Xserver running.

Get http://qnx.wox.org/qnx/ph and save it to /usr/bin and chmod 755 it. Then
restart photon and XPhoton will be all setup for ya. This will happen
auto-magically in the next release of QNX.
