Hi waggy:

I have first configured as follows:

../configure COMPILED_BY="tony <nto### [at] terraes>" \
--prefix=/home/tony/installed \
--with-boost=/home/tony/installed \
--with-boost-libdir=/home/tony/installed/lib \
--with-x \
--enable-static

and gives this output:

.....
checking X11/Xlib.h usability... yes
checking X11/Xlib.h presence... yes
checking for X11/Xlib.h... yes
checking for XFlush in -lX11... no
configure: X Window display will be disabled


After I installed SDL-1.2.13 on /home/tony/installed and I reconfigure:

../configure COMPILED_BY="tony <nto### [at] terraes>" \
--prefix=/home/tony/installed \
--with-boost=/home/tony/installed \
--with-boost-libdir=/home/tony/installed/lib \
--with-libsdl=/home/tony/installed/include/SDL \
--with-x \
--enable-static

and gives the same output:

.....
checking X11/Xlib.h usability... yes
checking X11/Xlib.h presence... yes
checking for X11/Xlib.h... yes
checking for XFlush in -lX11... no
configure: X Window display will be disabled

After I reconfigure adding:

--x-includes=/home/tony/installed/include/SDL \
--x-libraries=/home/tony/installed/lib \

and gives the same output.

Do you know why?

Tony

That is odd.  In your original post, it seemed to be giving up on X Windows a
bit later...

I apologize I probably can't help with this.  I gave up on X support for now,
since it really isn't needed (and could be counterproductive) for the system I
compiled the POV-Ray beta to run on.

I hope you can find a way to get it working without too much more trouble.
