you may need to update you pkgconfig paths, the X-devel packages...

 

the includes are usually in /usr/include/X11

 

so if that dire~ exists you have it installed already, you may need to update them though.. xorg-devel or xorg or somethign alng those lines..

 

for teh mean time.. you may try..

 

 

./configure --with-x-includes=/usr/include/X11

If its Fedora .. or a similar package based system, then you may not have the "devel"opment package installed.

 

For instance with Fedora:

Code:

yum install xorg-x11-devel
