thank you for all your replies, which were really sent so very promptly. that shows the enthusiasm that linuxers have for helping each other with their problems.
unfortunately, the problem wasn't solved. it is still giving the same error:
emacs: error in loading shared libraries: libXaw3d.so.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
i think there is some problem with the shared libraries. it would be great if anyone of you could point it out, so that i could tell my sysadmin to do the needful
thanks for all the co-operation and support
linuxers rule!
A person spake thusly:

maybe you should try installing the Xaw3d library? GNU Emacs uses it for some bars etc.
search for the Xaw3d library rpm ...

Okay, since you've reached this point, it's easy to debug the problem (I hope!:)) Basically, even if you don't _use_ the functions in a dynamically linked library, those libraries have to be _present_ when the dynamic linker does its load-time linking. This linker has no clue that the missing symbol resolutions are actually insignificant because you're using a command-line "-nw"
So, just install all the libraries that it wants, or else look for an Emacs version compiled without X support. (I believe SuSE has two versions of Emacs? It certainly has multiple versions of GS.)
Once you get the missing libraries installed, the "emacs -nw" will work fine.

Hello, Friends, I am a teacher of english for last 10 yrs in Kachchh District of Gujarat State. I am fond of using computer. and I wanted to be free from pirated software. so through serfing and discussing with friends I got this Linux operating system I am a self-learned user of computer. It is my limitation. I have installed Mandrake 9.0 on partition. It works fine. I receive lots of mail from our group. By going through the mails i am benifited a lot. Now, my current problems is as follows: I can not get internet start up. I have motorola sm56 internal modem. my ISP is sancharnet. I don't know my IP address, DNS server names as well as Domain Names. From where I can get all these?
I am eagerly waiting for positive support from you. I want to be free from other operating system. Yours Sincerely, Snehal Vaidya.
Hi, As regards to your sm56 modem , It will not work under the kernel version that your running because Motorola has discontinued the chip and also did not release the source for the soft-modem (its not a real modem in the hardware sense). It will however work under redhat 7.1 i think. I would recommend you to get the cheapest external modem around to connect to the net.
As for your DNS Servers, Ip addresses, you dont have to bother about them as they are automatically assigned to you by your ISP when you connect.

Hi,
motorola says that SM56 modem will not support GNU/Linux based OS. they have released drivers only for RH 7.1. you can i either change your modem (externals are the best, while some internal modems like pctel / conexant maybe supported) or shift to RH7.1
I can not get internet start up. I have motorola sm56 internal modem.

ISP is sancharnet. I don't know my IP address, DNS server names as well as Domain Names. From where I can get all these?
you dont need ip/dns etc dialup manager will get it automatically

Thats nice to know... :)

It's not a limitation Ms. Snehal. All computer pundits on the planet are self-learnt :).

The Motorols SM56 holistically speaking is not really a modem. Many GNU/Linux users think it's an excuse for a modem, so they don't bother themselves to build better drivers.
However, a newer Redhat distribution should do the trick.
my
ISP is sancharnet. I don't know my IP address, DNS server names as well as Domain Names. From where I can get all these?
Every reigonal ISP has it's own DNS servers, so you'll have to find that out which ones are applicable. However, these adresses are assigned to you automatically if you use a fairly modern dialer like wvdial or kppp.
Warm wishes,
Amol Hatwar.

try
$ ldd `which emacs`
This will list all the libs required by the binary. Then make sure that all the libs listed there are present either in /lib or /usr/lib. If not you have to ask ur admin to add this libs.
thanks for all the co-operation and support
