yep - got that too, :) as well as all these:

dev1:~/garnome-2.10.0.1/desktop# apt-cache search libxext
libxext-dev - X Window System miscellaneous extension library 
development files
libxext6 - X Window System miscellaneous extension library
libxext6-dbg - X Window System miscellaneous extension library (unstripped)
libxtst6 - X Window System event recording and testing extension library
xlibs-dbg - X Window System unstripped client libraries dummy package
xlibs-dev - X Window System client library development files dummy package

But still fails with the orginal error. any futher?

Thanks!!!!!!
