We were all newbies once (except maybe Linus, Ras and Mandrake, of course.
They were formed that way in the womb...;-)

Okay, I had a problem with this a month or so ago. The problem you are
seeing is due to the fact that you are running libjpeg-6a, and imlib is
expecting -6b. That could be due to one of several other libs that depend
on it, but my suspicion is ImageMagick. But if you upgrade your libjpeg,
expect several other things to break. Same deal with libpng 0.96 vs 1.01.

My suggestion would be to start with the src rpm of ImageMagick and
compile that, then if the problems persist, try compiling the src of
imlib. This should compile it to use the existing libjpeg.

See note from Gnea's previous message. Actually, I am working on a custom
.xinitrc/.xsession that allows you to choose a wm on the fly, and will
take care of the theme issues.
