I'm trying to install X11 on mandrake 10.1. I'm following the directions at:
http://www.x.org/X11R6.8.1/doc/BUILD.html . Unpacking it went without any trouble, and it gets most of the way through the compiling, but then I get this:
gcc -m32 -c -O2 -fno-strength-reduce -fno-strict-aliasing -ansi -pedantic -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wundef -I../../../exports/include/X11 -I../../../include/extensions -I../../../programs/Xserver/include -I../../../include/extensions -I../../zlib -I../../.. -I../../../exports/include -Dlinux -D__i386__ -D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=199309L -D_POSIX_SOURCE -D_XOPEN_SOURCE -D_BSD_SOURCE -D_SVID_SOURCE -D_GNU_SOURCE -DFUNCPROTO=15 -DNARROWPROTO lbx_zlib.c

I've been playing with this for a while now, working through other problems that have come up, but I'm stumped here. Don't know if it's something I did earlier or not. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong, how to fix it, or where to find more info on this? I'm running Mandrake 10.1 with kernel 2.6.8.1.
Many thanks.
Baker
