I'm having a frustrating problem.  It is the same as posted by Ching Yi Tsai.  When I 
try to run lyx, I get the following message:

lyx: error in loading shared libraries
libc.so.5: cannot open shared object file:
No such file or directory

I am using Redhat 6.0 with all of the libraries and development libraries installed.  
I have also installed Xforms.  I have tried to compile the source myself and have 
installed 1.0.4pre4 from Kayvan's rpms.  Always the same message.  I have run ldd 
/usr/bin/lyx at Kayvan's suggestion, and I receive a message which states there is a 
bug in ld.so.  (I am away from my home computer right now, and do not have the entire 
message).  Knowing I was making a stupid move, I tried to replace ld.so with another 
version of it and messed up a variety of library issues, so I spent last night 
reinstalling the whole system from scratch.  I thought maybe a fresh start would take 
care of the lyx problem, but the same message came up.  I have seen the message 
suggesting ldconfig.  How is that used?  As should be evident by now, I know just 
enough to get into trouble.  Has anyone else run into this problem?  Any ideas?  
Thanks.
