+Q: During 'make', MPlayer complains about X11 libraries. I don't understand,

+A: ...but you don't have the X development package installed. It's called
+   XFree86-devel* under RedHat, and xlib6g-dev* under Debian.
+   Also check if the /usr/X11 symlink exists (this can be a problem on
+   Mandrake systems). It can be created with the 'ln -sf /usr/X11R6 /usr/X11'
+   command. Your distribution may differ from the Linux Filesystem Standard.
