Thanks.  The latter part looks strange.  I'm rather sure that this is
*not* a standard directory for X11 libraries.  Are there no soft links
within some standard directories (i.e., `/usr/lib' or `/usr/lib64') to
this directory?  Please do

  ls /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/X11/rstart/commands/x11r6 > ~/ls.txt

and show us the file.

Attached with this mail.

 

Does compilation work with

  make X11_PATH=/usr/include

also?

No.

I installed ubutnu 18.04 in a virtualbox and tested this there too, initially

it returned error with `make X11_PATH=/usr/include' then I found out

`libx11-dev' was missing, so I installed it and then when I did

`make X11_PATH=/usr/include' it allocated display surface and demo

program ran.

So I think for these ubuntu installations installing `libx11-dev'

first and them `make X11_PATH=/usr/include' should work.

Should I check any more cases?

Thank you
