Two weeks ago I posted the following text concerning my problems to run 
xdtm-2.5 under Linux. Because I didn't get any helpful answer, I post again.
Since somebody must have compiled this thing for Linux, I'm convinced,
somebody can help. My questions are:
 1. Does somebody run xdtm-2.5 under Linux without having the problems I
    describe?
 2. Can somebody send me a patch to compile xdtm-2.5?
