xdm problems



Hi,
I got Hurd running on an old P200/32 MB/1 GB. So far everything works fine, but I ran into a strange problem with xdm (from the hurd-F3-main iso): First of all, X seems to run ok when started with startx. However, xdm boils out at the end of the initialization process with (from /var/log/xdm.log):

(...)
/usr/X11R6/bin/xrdb: error while loading shared libraries: libXmu.so.6: cannot load shared object file: No such file or directory xdm error (pid 254): /usr/X11R6/lib/libXdmGreet.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory while loading /usr/X11R6/lib/libXdmGreet.so

I don't understand the first line, because libXmu.so.6 exists and /usr/X11R6/lib is in the /etc/ld.so.conf. Also, "ldd /usr/bin/X11/xrdb" gives me the following:
libXmu.so.6 => /X11R6/lib/libXmu.so.6 (0x01027000)
So I don't see where the problem when loading the "shared object file" might be.

libXdmGreet.so doesn't exist on my system, I read somewhere at google groups that this library is (or should be) linked statically on i386 platforms (it doesn't show up with ldd either).

Any help would be appreciated ...
