How to use ShadowPlan under 64-bit Linux

I encountered the following error when I tried running ShadowPlan (aka Shadow Plan, so search engines can find this page) under Kubuntu 6.06.1 LTS 64-bit (AMD64 chip):

./ShadowDesktopRun: error while loading shared libraries: libXcursor.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

The quick-and-easy fix:

sudo aptitude install linux32 ia32-libs ia32-libs-gtk

The ia32-libs-gtk package was the key.

Many thanks to the UbuntuForums members who contributed to this thread.
