Re: No "show keyboard status" indicator in KDE4

Sorry for the late response, I have been swamped. Actually, if I don't
finish this today, I do not know when I will get to it.

As I am using the Neon packages for the latest KDE, this is what I tried:

ety@intrepid-desktop:~/keyboardLeds$ cmake
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/kde-nightly && echo "yes"
-- The CXX compiler identification is GNU
-- Check for working CXX compiler: /usr/bin/c++
-- Check for working CXX compiler: /usr/bin/c++ -- works
-- Detecting CXX compiler ABI info
-- Detecting CXX compiler ABI info - done
-- Found Qt-Version 4.4.3 (using /opt/project-neon/bin/qmake)
CMake Error at /opt/kde-nightly/share/apps/cmake/modules/FindX11.cmake:389
(MESSAGE):

ety@intrepid-desktop:~/keyboardLeds$


Why does it not find X11? What should I do from here? I could not find
anything on Google that seemed related.
