Hi.
After enjoying Lazarus on Windows, now I'd like to use it on Linux
(Suse 9.2).
My problem is that when I try to compile anything, I obtain the error
message:
Code: [Select]/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lX11
I'm new to Linux, but after reading the FAQ I guess it indicates the
lack of X11 library. But, of course, I have Xfree86 installed and well
working... There's something I can't understand...
Any suggestion?
Thanks and regards

You need to install devel packages for X11 and possibly other things.
They are <name>-devel.something.rpm
Try looking up x or x11 in your package install app to see if you can
find such.
You'll also need pixbuf and gtk.

If someone has problems installing XFree86-devel he maybe needs to
install xorg-x11-devel instead of it !
