    [SOLVED] Adobe reader not starting

    Hi,
    I'm using fedora 13 (64 bit) distro.
    i had installed adobe reader recently through the "bin" file.
    everything installed correctly in the "opt/adobe" directory.
    but after installation when i tried to open a pdf document using adobe reader it doesnt respond anything.
    even when i tried to open it through the kernel i got the error message as follows...
    Code:
    [pradeep@localhost ~]$ acroread
    /opt/Adobe/Reader9/Reader/intellinux/bin/acroread: error while loading shared libraries: libxml2.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
    [pradeep@localhost ~]$
    should i do anything else after installing that bin file ?
    please anyone help me to fix this problem...

    Have you tried to install it through default package manager, yum?
