Bill,

I've just removed the j64-807 directory and re-installed it. As you can see, the installer seems to have used the 'slim' binaries:
Updating server catalog...
Installing 1 package
Downloading base library...
Installing base library...
Done.
Installing JQt slim binaries...
Finished install of JQt slim binaries.
Exit and restart J using jqt.sh

One problem: there are no jconsole.sh or jqt.sh files in j807_linux64_nonavx.tar package. I started jconsole by directly
using ./jconsole in the j64-807/bin directory. (It also starts
fine with the grey icon.) However, the jq807 icon has no effect
and when I try ./jqt directly, I get exaclty the message as before:

"/home/jph/j64-807/bin/libjqt"
"could not resolve: state_run:\n\nCannot load library /home/jph/j64-807/bin/libjqt: (libQt5WebSockets.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)"

So it is still looking for WebSockets. ??

I'll continue to mess with it, as time permits.

Thanks, Patrick

Oh, you missed webkit (libQt5WebKitWidgets.so.5), so the instruction in jwiki should apply.
linux jqt uses webengine in j901.

That show progress already, it missed the webengine package. You can try in
jconsole and type
install 'slim'

this doesn't require webengine, you can check jwiki to install other
missing packages.

webkit mentioned there is not webengine.
