SuSE-INTERN:

Symptom:

You are using a laptop with PCMCIA cards and cannot use the CardInfo program in X-windows.

You recieve the error:

 cardinfo: error in loading shared libraries libforms.so.88: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

CardInfo requires the "xforms" package (included with your distribution) to run. The package is not installed by default due to a dependancy issue with X-windows.

Procedure:

  1. Run YaST
  2. select Choose/Install Pacakges
  3. select Change Create Configuration
  4. highlight the "xdev" series , hit spacebar
