Subject: Mplayer configure and X11 libs

Hopefully this is recieved by right person, sorry if wrong one. This is
about ./configure script and autodetection of X11 libs.

I tried to get 0.60 version compiled with X11 and Xv support, but failed.
Running ./configure showed that X11 libs existed and were detected but
no support to X11, etc. I tried and check support for Xv and X11 from various
place but no one gave me an answer, not even mplayer maillists. Finally I
realized that dev-libraries had to be installed in order to compile new
programs using X11. So, installing xlibs-dev (I'm using debian) helped and
support to X11, Xv and others were found.

I'm happy now, but I only ask if it would be possible to add this to
documentation or in FAQ so I (or others) wouldn't do this mistake again.
