Building modules on Linux

Hey everyone, I've got the IDE working on ubuntu 13.xx

But now I want to install and use my third party modules. But building modules stops here:

In file included from /home/jp/Desktop/BlitzMax/mod/brl.mod/system.mod/system.c:2:0:
/home/jp/Desktop/BlitzMax/mod/brl.mod/system.mod/system.h:52:22: fatal error: X11/Xlib.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
Build Error: failed to compile /home/jp/Desktop/BlitzMax/mod/brl.mod/system.mod/system.c
Process complete


It builds up to that point. Do I need to do anything different? I remember to build modules on windows I had installed something which allowed me to build modules. I am using the same PC, with a copy of linux installed alongside windows.

Thanks

You need to install the development libraries. There are plenty of posts on how to do this in the Linux section.

And note that you need the 32-bit versions of those libraries, not 64-bit.

Hi, I used this instructions:

Can build modules seemingly fine now. I think the issue I have now is timelinefx...won't compile.
