Howdy,

i'm having problems getting the FFI to work (on LinuxPPC).

i've followed the directions on the list about configuring FFI
as an external module. however, when i try to do "X11Display x11Draw"
i get an error window that says "Callout mechanism not available" and
in the ETerm window that i started Squeak i got this message:


ioLoadModule(/usr/local/lib/squeak/2.8/SqueakFFIPrims.so): libffi.so.1:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
ioLoadModule(/usr/local/lib/squeak/2.8/SqueakFFIPrims.so): libffi.so.1:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


i checked and SqueakFFIPrims.so is in the path mentioned above. what am
i missing??


TIA


                           \\//_
