sounds like the configure can't find stuff - can ua do a ./configure --help - there should be options to include libs - e.g. /usr/X11R6/lib/
hey,
i decided to try getting the cvs version rather than the source which has worked in the past. when i do the ./configure it tells me i need the x window system and libraries to continue. now this is in kde on drake im working on this so obviousy i have x installed. can anyone tell me what i need specifically?
one other thing, i see that you can do updates for the cvs version. does that mean that after fluxbox is installed i can just do updates and it basically updates the software? thanks for any help.

options ive tried so far with the same x window error were:
--with-x
--x-libraries=DIR
--x-includes=DIR
--enable-shared
any options you might think would work instead?

hi SD!!
--x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib/ --x-includes=/usr/X11R6/include/X11/ is what i would try, the header are in there for good measure, although from what i see you may not need that.
