build failing with X not found



Hi list,

My partition space problem is solved, but now the build fails as 
follows:

checking for X... no
configure: error: X is required, but it was either disabled or not 
found.
make[5]: *** [configure-work/main.d/xrender-0.8.3/configure] Error 1
make[5]: Leaving directory 
`/pub/gnome/garnome-2.16.1.1/freedesktop/xrender'

Here is output from "which" and "file":

gnome cq:desktop% which X Xorg
/usr/bin/X
/usr/bin/Xorg
gnome cq:desktop% file /usr/bin/X /usr/bin/Xorg
/usr/bin/X:    symbolic link to `/usr/bin/Xorg'
/usr/bin/Xorg: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), 
for GNU/Linux 2.4.1, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for 
GNU/Linux 2.4.1, stripped


So X is there, or actually Xorg, but it is shown for Linux 2.4.1, 
whereas my kernel is 2.6.18, as per this:

gnome cq:desktop% uname -a
Linux cq 2.6.18 #1 SMP Sat Oct 7 14:45:02 EDT 2006 i686 GNU/Linux

I have been using this X with gnome 2.14, installed from the Debian 
unstable archives, and am attempting to move up to gnome 2.16 with this 
garnome build. Any help with this would be most welcome. 

Puzzled,

Chuck
