hi,
I'm a beginner with installation of ImageMagick on gNewSense (Ubuntu based linux).
When I run display to check I have the error message:
delegate library support not build in (X11) @error/display.c/DisplayImageCommand/1892
Which library is it ? What can I do to re-build correctly ?
In advance thanks.

I am having similar issues and could not resolve this yet, but from what I have read is you should check this: You can also try to install the library files like libxml2.

See the delegate libraries that are noted as required at http://www.imagemagick.org/download/www/formats.html

Typically you will need to install for jpg, png, tiff, ghostscript (if you want PDF).

Each platform has different ways to install them. I cannot help on LInux. On Mac I use MacPorts to install them.

After installing the delegates, you need to recompile IM.

I have the same problem on solaris
but the Solaris has the X11 library
