It works on my 7.2 install, If she is having problems try uninstalling 
x3270  reinstalling it, something might be missing. If that does not 
work, try rebuilding the binary rpm from the source rpm and reinstalling 
that one. It might be some sort of library mismatch.



 Me either and i don't even know her.  What's a 'x3270' ?

Sort of like an xterm, but it emulates a tn3270 for IBM big iron boxes.


 OK, I did a google on it out'a curiousity, and their homepage says if
 you don't know what it is ... you don't need one

Toma 3270 is an IBM terminal and the x3270 program 
emulates a 3270 terminal on a linux box.  They're pretty much 
on the mark when they say "if you don't know what it is ... 
you don't need one". :-)
