i had to patch the makefile to link it correctly:

not sure, where a proper fix should go

I have no problems linking it in Ubuntu. I guess your distro must have its X libraries arranged differently… What distro are you using?

I’ve the same issue. Xext is required, if you enable the config option to use XSHM.

well this is kinda out of date, but…
…i had the same problem. solved it by using llvm/clang for the build:
just add CXX=clang++ at the top of the Makefile … well and install llvm/clang if you haven’t yet :wink:
