installation - Help installing vmg magnifier program

I'm trying to install Virtual Magnifying Glass http://magnifier.sourceforge.net/ as it's the only program I can find that has a magnifier that follows the mouse with the actual magnification shown around the cursor itself. I haven't installed many programs, but have never had issues before, so any help is appreciated.



After installing, I try to run the program and get



vmg: error while loading shared libraries: libX11.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory




When I use ldd to check dependencies, I get.



chris@Buntzen:/usr/bin$ ldd vmg



linux-gate.so.1 =>  (0xf76fe000)
libpthread.so.0 => /lib32/libpthread.so.0 (0xf76c8000)

libc.so.6 => /lib32/libc.so.6 (0xf751a000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xf76ff000)



I'm running Ubuntu 12.04, the amd64 version.



Getting this installed would help me a lot. Any assistance is appreciated.
Thanks,
Chris
