<screen><userinput>./configure --prefix=/usr \

    <note><para>
      When installing, the Makefile does some additional 
      linking.  If you do not have Xorg in /usr, the LIBRARY_PATH
      variable needs to be defined for the root user.  If 
      using sudo to assume root, use the -E option to pass 
      your current environment variables for the install process.
