What about a X related newsgroup comp.os.linux.X
or something like this!

Are you sure that you installed the development part of X.
There must be some header files (*.h) under /usr/X11R6/include/X11
and some libs under /usr/X11R6/lib.

If you are using Linux:
Most distributions offer something like xdevel (Suse)
or under debian you must have xlib6g-dev installed.

Hope it helps,

Philipp
