Congrats Ron, I was waiting to see how long it took someone to post to
axp-list about this, about 50 minutes :)

Yes, I installed the RPM on an LX running 6.1 and it works fine. The libs
are:

-rw-r--r-- root/root   2236416 1999-10-31 16:03:43 usr/shlib/libXm.so

I was told that they just followed the directions on alphalinux.org to
create the package. As for the royalties, didn't ask, my guess is they've
worked something out (yes, this really did come from Compaq).
