Hi,
    I am installing ROOT 3.05/03 on Slackware Linux gcc-2.95.3. The 
ROOTSYS points to ~/xroot which I created by ./configure linux 
--prefix=~/xroot --etcdir=~/etc/root. I have included ~/xroot/lib/root in 
ld.so.conf and run ldconfig. Then after exports when I run root, the 
screen gives me the following error messages. Could you please tell me 
what are these for and if I have done any mistake in installing.

	Then I wanted to open a canvas by the Hello world example but it 
doesn't open but says:-
root [0] TPaveLabel hello(0.2,0.4,0.8,0.6,"Hello World");
root [1] hello.Draw();
Warning in <TCanvas::ResizePad>: c1 width changed from 0 to 10

Warning in <TCanvas::ResizePad>: c1 height changed from 0 to 10

<TCanvas::MakeDefCanvas>: created default TCanvas with name c1
