It looks like the "configure" script doesn't know where to find the X Window System header files. I'm guessing it will probably also stumble trying to find X's libraries too.
I'm guessing that Redhat puts its X under /usr/X11R6, so with that in mind I would re-run configure like this:
env CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/X11R6/include LDFLAGS=-L/usr/X11R6/lib ./configure
and see if it still complains.

Have you installed the X development headers and libraries on your machine?
That maybe why the configure script cannot find them.

No, the configure script looks in the standard location which you mentioned
and cannot find them there.
It is time to
rpm -ivh XFree86-devel-4.3.0-2.i386.rpm
and any other devel rpms needed.

ok in order to install Xfree86Config I have t ojump thought all of these hoops, ne way I need to install fontconfig 2.2.0 it was tar.gz I untared in ran ./configure but when I ran make it ran smoothly untill the end when it said:
Code:
mv manpage.refs func.refs
rm -f manpage.links
rm -f file.refs
docbook2man fontconfig-user.sgml
Using catalogs: /etc/sgml/sgml-docbook-3.1-1.0-17.cat
Using stylesheet: /usr/share/sgml/docbook/utils-0.6.12/docbook-utils.dsl#print
Working on: /usr/xrpm/fontconfig-2.2.0/doc/fontconfig-user.sgml
Done.
rm -f manpage.refs manpage.links
rm -f fontconfig-user.txt
docbook2txt fontconfig-user.sgml
Using catalogs: /etc/sgml/sgml-docbook-3.1-1.0-17.cat
Using stylesheet: /usr/share/sgml/docbook/utils-0.6.12/docbook-utils.dsl#html
Working on: /usr/xrpm/fontconfig-2.2.0/doc/fontconfig-user.sgml
No way to convert HTML to text found.
make[2]: *** [fontconfig-user.txt] Error 8
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/xrpm/fontconfig-2.2.0/doc'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/xrpm/fontconfig-2.2.0'
make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2

Just curious. What operating were you using when you saw that initial screenshot with SuperKaramba? Were you using a Linux browser at the time, such as Mozilla, Konqueror or perhaps Nautilus? Or did you see this while you were under Windows?
