I only know three words in UNIX, and that's because I have to copy/paste 
them into the occasional tech support response. But...doesn't "ldd" 
work? That's supposed to give you that info. Typical output:

ldd revolution.x86
linux-gate.so.1 => (0xffffe000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0xb7edb000)
libX11.so.6 => /usr/lib/libX11.so.6 (0xb7e0f000)
libXext.so.6 => /usr/lib/libXext.so.6 (0xb7e01000)
libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0xb7ddc000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0xb7caf000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb7f08000)

If anything on the right hand side is missing then there are missing 
libraries.
