You need to install the "devel" packages for X. On mandrake, you would do this:
urpmi XFree86-devel
which would find the latest version of XFree86-devel and install it. On your distro, the package probably has a similar name. But since I don't know which distro you use, I can't tell you exactly.

i use mandrake 9.1 and when i typed in this command i got this: no page named XFree86-devel
well i found the devel package for xfree86 on mandrake`s ftp website(i cant trust my cds now) and when i was trying to install it,i got this error:

fontconfig-devel is on mandrake's ftp site... If you have urpmi properly set up, you wouldn't have this hassle.
As root, type this (all on one line):
urpmi.addmedia main ftp://ftp.rutgers.edu/pub/mandrake/Mandrake/9.1/i586/Mandrake/RPMS with ../base/hdlist.cz
Then, just do "urpmi XFree86-devel" and any other needed packages will be automatically downloaded and installed along with it.
i got this from what i typed:
