Hi,
I encountered the following errors during iTest installation on a linux 32-bit system. Not sure what these errors mean. I had previously successfully installed iTest on this system when I logged in as a root, but I uninstall and re-logged in as a regular user for fresh installation. Could this be the cause of these errors?
-------------
Thanks,
Loko

When logged in as this regular user, what version of java is on your path? You can find this via java -version. Also, can you run any GUI applications at all?

It seems to be a system-related issue. Do you use Ubuntu by any chance?
Please try these 2 options and see whether it works.
1. Use console and set DISPLAY:
> export DISPLAY=:0; ./fnfr_lnx_340.bin
2. Use your system's JVM (assume your java path is /usr/bin/java)
> fnfr_lnx_340.bin LAX_VM /usr/bin/java

Your system is missing important libraries to run a full fledged Java application like iTest. Many Linux systems come in a fairly "stripped down" version or are stripped by IT organizations for security and space considerations. These systems can run limited GTK based apps - but have trouble running wide range of GUI apps because they lack certain libraries. It is very hard to figure out what is missing and what needs to be installed (because someone specifically went and removed whole bunch of libraries from such an installation). For this reason, we do not support customized Linux o/s. We support standard RedHat Enterprise Linux 4.0 installation and many other full installations of Linux which have all the libraries installed.
I would suggest involving your IT person and troubleshooting - and be prepared to spend considerable amount of time figuring this out. If you want to save time, you may want to ask your IT person of possibility of getting a normal, standard Linux distribution.
