Hi there
I've tried as you proposed to start like this
[dikov_at_violet dikov]$ /usr/local/vmd-1.7.1/LINUX/vmd_LINUX

Info) vmd for LINUX, version 1.7.1 (December 23, 2001)
Info) VMD WWW Page: http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/vmd/
Info) Please email all comments and bug reports to vmd_at_ks.uiuc.edu

Info) VMD please include the following reference:
Info) Humphrey, W., Dalke, A. and Schulten, K., `VMD - Visual
Info) Molecular Dynamics', J. Molec. Graphics 1996, 14.1, 33-38.
Info) -------------------------------------------------------------
Info) Multithreading available, 1 CPU detected.
/usr/local/vmd-1.7.1/LINUX/vmd_LINUX: relocation error:
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXv.so.
1: undefined symbol: XextFindDisplay
[dikov_at_violet dikov]$

In text mode vmd starts whithout any problem

So the problem is in /usr/X11R6/lib/libXv.so library and I'll write to ALT
Linux developers . But if anybody has some suggestions what to do and how to
fix your comments are appreciated

Sincerely yours,

Dima
