Nat is talking about a different PyMOL.  The binary at
/usr/local/crys/64/phenix-1.7-650/pymol/pymol.exe generated the error, but
you're showing the info for one installed from YUM.

In any case, the problem is that the PyMOL shipped _with_ PHENIX is a
32-bit binary, even in the 64-bit download.

 $ file phenix-1.7-650/pymol/pymol.exe 
phenix-1.7-650/pymol/pymol.exe: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.2.5, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.2.5, not stripped

And the libXmu.so.6 that you have is 64-bit.

On my 64-bit Fedora 13 machine, the 32-bit libXmu is installed in /usr/lib
and provided by libXmu-1.0.5-2.fc13.i686.  Something similar should work
for you.  You may well have to run:

ldd /usr/local/crys/64/phenix-1.7-650/pymol/pymol.exe

And slowly install all the necessary 32-bit X11 libraries until you get it
running in order for it to work.

I got a window on my OS X machine the other day telling me that PHENIX
would prefer to use a newer MacPyMOL if it could find one in /Applications.
Can I configure this to find the newer MacPyMOL in a different path?  How
about on linux?  That might be another possible solution to Leonid's
problem.
