The first message looks pretty like a problem with different versions of
the GNU libraries, respectively a bug in the auto detection of version
conflicts. I used SuSE linux 6.2 on a PC for quite some time and didn't
have any problems with MusixTeX and friends. So we shouldn't blame SuSE. I
remember that around the version you mention there was a major change in
the glibc version.
For you there is only one solution. Recompile pmx from its fortran
sources on your system (ask me for help if you don't know how to do that).
The second message tells me that either a TeX format file is missing or
the one you use is in a wrong binary format. Try to musixtex your file
without the musixtex format file by inserting the line '\input musixtex'
into your musixtex source and texing it directly ('virtex <your file>').
If that works you should (re-) generate your format file by typing on the
shell prompt 'initex musixtex.ins'.
Other problems with binary files may show up afterwards:
- font metrics (*.tfm, in SuSE Linux usually under
/usr/share/texmf/fonts/tfm/public/musixtex/)
- pixel fonts (*.???pk, /var/cache/fonts/pk/<printer>/public/musixtex/)
Try to move these files to a save place and run 'texconfig rehash'. After
that TeX should recognise that they are missing and should regenerate them
on the fly. Once that works you can savely remove the backupped old files.
There is another general point: You could think about upgrading your Linux
system to a newer version using an actual binary format of the glib
libraries. This is certainly a major task. But when you want to use new
versions of software you probabely will have similar problems in future
when using an old library format :-(
