I tried typing in 'xev' but got the error:

xev: unable to open display ""

I tried the man page on xev and did find the -display option but I don't
know what to put after that as the parameter. It doesn't give any
examples.


When I run xdm from the > prompt I get:

Shared object "libutil.so.3" not fund, required by "xdm"

I assume this means I'm missing a file. After tracking some stuff down I
found it should be in /usr/lib but it's not there. Any idea where I can
get it?

Thanks,
Jon
