Problem with Xxf86vm

Hello everyone,

I tried to install allegro on my pc. But when I try to generate it with ccmake (as shown in the readme) it says the following:

"WARNING: missing Xxf86vm (XF86VidMode) library. Fullscreen support will be disabled."

So I installed it with

"apt-get install libXxf86vm-dev"

That worked, but when I try again to generate the makefile it says just the same thing as before.

Does someone know what to do against this?

That worked, but when I try again to generate the makefile it says just the same thing as before.

Delete the CMakeCache.txt file, or if you've built in a separate directory (as is recomended), delete everything in the build dir, then re run cmake.
