Hi Michael,

make sure that there's also /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so (should be
a symlink to the actual library) - _that's_ the name ld is
looking for (or .a, if you're linking statically - I don't know
about ifort and what options it passes to the linker).
If the file is present indeed, you can only try

strace -eopen -f ifort ... 2> ifort.strace
grep "libX11\." ifort.strace

to see where ld actually searches, and why it fails.

Regards,

Jan
