I am willing to install imwheel to get my mouse buttons work. It seems
that there is no repository containing imwheel for Opensuse, and I found
it also on the wishlist.
So I downloaded the source, extracted it and ran ./configure, but then
I got this: -Error: IMWheel depends on the X11 libraries-
I just recently compiled imwheel and I had the same problem. If I recall
correctly I used:
Code:
./configure --prefix=/opt/kde3
to get it to work correctly. You can check what your prefix is to add
to the config by entering:
Code:
kde-config -prefix
in a konsole window. This can then be added to your config. I’m running
openSUSE 11.1 with KDE4 so of course if your using Gnome this may be
different.

The --prefix option tells configure where to install the software when
‘make install’ is executed. It doesn’t tell configure where to find
libraries. According to ./configure --help, the --x-includes= and
–x-libraries= would probably be the relevant options.
That said, if the xorg-x11-devel package is installed (as it is on my
system) then ./configure will succeed without needing to specify the
location of the X11 libraries.
