I just installed Debian(amd64) for the first time and I've been getting errors about not being able to load shared libraries in multiple programs, but when i search for them I can find the file they reference.

For example:

Vmware:

/usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmplayer: error while loading shared libraries: libX11.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


Firefox:

./firefox-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


I can find both of these but don't know how to get it set so that they are found by the program that needs them.

I posted this on linuxquestions.org but have come up pretty empty handed on a solution, here's the link incase it's helpful.
