hi there - can anyone help with some newbie
questions re. Afterstep/NetBSD on a IIci?

haven't been able to find the right source for
some set-up information - do have the NetBSD
short guide by Federico Lupi, and the X how to
by Bob Nestor...also Teach Yourself Unix in 24hours

Installed, and running now, but probably not configured
properly, is NetBSD 1.5, the monochrome X11R6 files and
Afterstep 1.8 - all installed via MacOS using the installer
utility.

NetBSD, and then X-Windows, both seemed to be working fine, 
the latter with no configuration at all. Since the instruction:

#echo "exec afterstep" > /.xinitrc

the command

#startx

no longer launches X. The error message in xlog.txt is:

/usr/libexec/ld.so: afterstep: libasimage.so.1.9: No such file or 
directory
Waiting for X server to shut down

does a file need copying or moving, or should many many files 
have been configured before getting this far?!

pointers to useful URLs gratefully received
thanks in advance
Richard
