I believe libX.so.2 is a Motif library. Which means that lesstif should
have a version of it too. To find it, try '%find / | grep "libX.so.2"'
(ignoring the external single-quotes). That will search every directory
you have access to for that filename. Personally, I have never used the
JDK rpm. Installing the JDK by hand is one of the simplest installs I've
ever seen. Just unzip it, and set your PATH and CLASSPATH variables in
your shell rc file to point to wherever you unzipped it. The
documentation that comes with it goes over that in better detail.
