This means the MMCoreJ_wrap is not in java.library.path.  So, you will  
need to add the location of MMCoreJ_wrap.so to your  
java.library.path.  I once had a "run" script in the repository for  
that purpose.  I am not sure what replace this on linux, but the  
startup script looked as follow:

#!/bin/bash
cd /usr/local/ImageJ
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=.:/usr/local/lib:/usr/lib/micro-manager:/usr/ 
local/ImageJ
java -mx1200m -Djava.library.path=/usr/lib/micro-manager:/usr/local/ 
ImageJ -Dplugins.dir=/usr/local/ImageJ -cp /usr/local/ImageJ/ij.jar:/ 
usr/local/jdk1.5.0_04/lib/tools.jar ij.ImageJ

Where /usr/local/ImageJ is the location of ij.jar, and /usr/lib/micro- 
manager is the location of the micro-manager .so files.

Hope this helps!

Best,

Nico
