The X11 driver is compiled when one of the following patterns
is found in the current path:

  X11/bin
  X11R5/bin
  X11R6/bin

Then, the X11 path is extracted from the path, and the rest
goes on..

Please have a look at the file "demos/graph/x11/rules.mk"
which is in charge of deciding wether to compile the X11 driver
or not. It really should be straightforward to fix on your
system, and I'd welcome your diffs :-)

This file is not difficult to understand, I promise :-)

I have tested this thing succesfully on Linux (Mandrake 7.0)
a few days ago when fixing the display problems on TrueColor
displays..

Best Regards,
