As I said in my first reply you need to compile and install some new GROMACS version: "You'll need to install X11 headers and libraries (the package is called xorg-dev, off the top of my head), and use cmake .. -DGMX_X11=on before compiling & installing." Whether and how you need to uninstall your old GROMACS is dependent on it was previously installed. Generally there's no need to do so, but it might be a good idea.
