Using MC 4.5.54
On: Redhat 6.2

Now I was trying to figure out how you actually start the Gnome File
Manager.  It became clear from reading the FAQ that one should start with a
./configure --with-Gnome and compile as usual then it says "See Download."  

1) When I compile as usual after ./configure --with-gnome:

Configure seems to work fine. But make produces the following:

Begin Output from: make

make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/richkatz/mc-4.5.54'
make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2
========================================================
End Output from make

And then later during make install:

Begin Output from: make install
========================================================

                 from ../src/global.h:8,

make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/richkatz/mc-4.5.54/gnome'
make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1
==========================================================
End Output from: make install


I'm guessing this means it didn't work and that I'm missing X11/Xlib.h.
What did/didn't I do? Or don't I have?

If and when it finally works right, does Gnome File Manager just suddenly
show up in 

  I looked in the /gnome/docs.  And amazingly under Google there's the
opposite question (how does one avoid starting Gnome file manager).

Regards and thanks,
