I'm trying to install lyx 1.1.15 in my suse 6.4, but I can't. I downloaded it from the 
lyx site in a .tar.gz
format file. 

What I do is:
./configure --prefix=/opt/lyx --with-extra-lib=/usr/X11/lib/:/usr/lib/
--with-extra-inc=/usr/X11/include/:/usr/X11/include/X11/:/usr/include/ 

And what I get is:
** Cannot find X window libraries and/or headers. Check your installation.
   If you use a Linux system, check that you have installed
   the development tools. 

I'm sure i have the correct versions for Xforms and Xpm. In fact I installed them from 
the suse's cds and
they are more recent than required for lyx.

And I have already done 'make symlinks' in the /usr/src/linux directory, but it still 
doesn't work.

One thing i don't like much is when it says:

checking for X... no
checking for XOpenIM... yes

I don't know if it means something is wrong, but I even tried with the '--with-x' 
option for configure and it
still didn't work.

If somebody knows the trick for this, please HELP!!!! Thanks
