Re-run configure but also add in the -verbose flag. This should give you lots 
of output where you can see exactly which header file or lib is missing from 
the searched paths. 

I suspect that you are simply missing one of the X11 development packages. 
Find which it is and install it. You may need to rinse and repeat a few times 
to get all of them.

Cheers,
