Is it possible that you don't have the devel packages for X installed?
For Suse, I believe the package is called xorg-x11-devel.  
$rpm -q xorg-x11-devel
should tell you if it's there.  Or if I'm wrong in the name, try
$rpm -qa |grep xorg
to see all the xorg packages you have installed.  Look for something
with devel in the name.  

If that's kosher, perhaps you just need to tell configure where Suse
put's it's X headers and libraries.  Use the --with-extra-includes
and/or --with-extra-libs directives to ./configure.  See 
./configure --help for all the options you can pass it.
