John,

I would love more insight on what you did to make this work.  First off 
- I'm building on a SuSe 9.3 system.  It has XFree86 Xwindows (as far as 
I know).  Right now I can't figure out what's missing and have found no 
way to get a running (lesstif) pcb version.  I am building lesstif in 
the hope that some of the other problems I've been seeing will be 
addressed with the lesstif GUI. 

In particular - I'd love to know how to get the grid to display 
correctly on the back side of the board at all scales.  Last time this 
came up in the list, the thread got de-railed and the issue was never 
completely addressed.

Thanks,

Joe T
