Hi.

i tried to install KIso 0.7. I did the ./configure so as to configure the program to compile it after that, and it gets stucked. It says that it doesn't know where the x include files (x library files) are. It says i can specify where they are. My question is where are they???? i have mandrake 10.1

This is what the program said

checking for _NSGetEnviron... no
checking for vsnprintf... yes
checking for snprintf... yes
checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X includes. Please check your installation and add the correct paths!

Thanks

You do not have the "X Window System application development package" installed. Try install a xorg-x11-devel package (if you are using X11 from xorg, of course)

where do i get that package????? i looked for it with the mandrake center control and it's not there. I don't have it installed either (at least it doesn't seem so)
Is it on my mandrake CDs or do i have to downlaod it?

It should be available if you search for "xorg" or "x11" in rpmdrake. It may have a name thats slightly different from what was posted above.

I looked for it in tpmdrake with different names and i could'nt find it. There are some xorg files but no the dev stuff.
Anyhow, in case i have it installed, where does mandrake installs it so as to see if i have it?????
otherwise, where can i download it?

To find out if its installed do,

i don't have the package you mentioned

libxorg-x11-6.7.0-3mdk
xorg-x11-6.7.0-3mdk
xorg-x11-xfs-6.7.0-3mdk
xorg-x11-server-6.7.0-3mdk
xorg-x11-75dpi-fonts-6.7.0-3mdk

those are the packages i have. I also looked for it in rpmdrake and it's not there

now my question is where i can download it?

The package you need to install is "libxorg-x11-devel" on Mandrake. I am sure you have that on your CD's or other urpmi sources.

i too am havin the same problem
lets @@ if this helps thanx!!
