problem with wine
 
hi am using ubuntu and try to install wine from source and when configure it i got this error :
checking for X... no
configure: error: X development files not found. Wine will be built
without X support, which probably isn't what you want. You will need to install
development packages of Xlib/Xfree86 at the very least.
Use the --without-x option if you really want this.

.. how can i solve this problem ? i dont know what X development file ? and dont know from where can i download it ?

Well, that seems straightforward. Why not go to synaptic and look for X-devel? In fact, why not get wine from synaptic rather than installing from source?

tnx for reply ,i want to install from source and know what error mean and how to solve it

Well, then, like I said, go to the package manager and look for anything with xorg-devel or similar and install it. Then try again. Ubuntu doesn't have all the resources for compiling/building installed by default (unlike slackware). You have to install them first.

even if i try to install using apt-get install wine , it require me install all X package , is there way to install all X-devel rather than install each lib independently coz each package i install require other package

I wouldn't argue with synaptic. If it says you need the whole thing, you need the whole thing, in my opinion. That is the advantage and disadvantage of a dependency resolving package manager.
