To find what package a file is in, search on

http://packages.ubuntu.com/

You will notice a "Search the Contents of Packages" heading at the 
middle of the page.

The output of libXm.so.3 in that box is:

http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_contents.pl?word=libXm.so.3&searchmode=searchfiles&case=insensitive&version=dapper&arch=i386

which lists

j2re1.4 or libmotif3 packages as possibilities.  The other files can be 
found similarly.
