Subject: 1. where is libX11.1.1 2. too many open files

I tried the linux adaption of gwm (a windows manager that promises
Motif-like style) with the X11 coming with SLS.98.
It cried: cant find /lib/libX11.1.1 
I tried links to the jump/no-jump libX11's , but the result were segmentation faults. (xlock and xload(?) coming with
SLS.98 show the same behaviour).
Where can I get those libraries????
(Please, dont say: take the sources and recompile! I am a beginner
and at least gwm seems to be a very hard piece of work. )

My second point: Running xdvi unter X11  (phantastic!!!) I get the
error "Too many open files" when I need more than 25 or so TeX fonts.
CAn I change this? I am afraid I have to recompile the kernel. 
Where is the place to change the max. number of open files?

Many thanks for your time.
