If it was the wrong one, you would likely get a whole lot of errors about "Unresolved symbols" or the like. No, celestia doesn't know - if it complains it can't find it, it can't find it. i.e. doesn't see it at all. My guess is you created the symlink, and then went back and tried celestia? You probably need to run 'ldconfig' as root before you have any chance of celestia seeing it. If that doesn't work... as others have suggested, you probably want to check what directory the file is in... (/lib, /usr/lib, or /usr/local/lib I hope?) and that this directory is in your ld.so.conf Failing that... uh.. it really has no excuse not to work ;-) Have you checked the new symlink exists correctly, points to the right place (run an 'ls -l' over it), and that you typed the name correctly? :-) Cheers, Gareth
