Hello all.
I'm very new to Linux and am having an issue trying to install Superkaramba.
When I type ./configure it runs through its process and then at the end gives an error.
I have pasted the code below incase its obvious what i'm doing wrong.

Looks like you need the X dev files. What distro do you use?

Hello. I'm using Mandrake 10.1CE.

Cheers

Not sure, never used Mandrake, I think there is an rpm for x-dev files.

anyone?

I am having the same problem. I wonder where I can find the rpm.

I have just finished doing an update via URPMI --autoselect -v
I have also gone to the newer kernel-2.6.8.1.12mdk
This process updated all my XOrg and X Lib rpms. I'm now running Mandrake 10.1 Official Edition.
I still get the same error.

Help

xorg-x11-devel
Install that package.. urpmi xorg-x11-devel would probably do the trick.
cheers,

If compiling from source is too much trouble,then you can just grab the superkaramba RPM's out there.
