Thanks! I did that, and now when I run 'startmol --loadonly' I get:

/usr/lib/mol/0.9.70/bin/mol: /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0: no version 
information available (required by /usr/lb/mol/0.9.70/bin/mol)
/usr/lib/mol/0.9.70/bin/mol: /lib/libc.so.6: version 'GLIBC_2.3.3' not 
found (required by /usr/lib/mol/0.9.70/bin/mol)

So, I'm getting slightly frustrated here. How hard does it have to be 
to get MOL running? Am I missing something obvious or is this what 
every person who wants to run MOL has to go through?
