Hello Ahmad,

I didn't want to cluster my machine with tons of possibly unnecessary dev-packages (xorg-dev is a meta-package), however, so I did some more digging into the (un-)successful configure outputs. It came to notice that apparently I was also missing a file called "Intrinsic.h" which is part of the `libxt-dev' package in Ubuntu. This package only pulled in another 3 dependent packages on my system. Still the whole issue is somewhat strange as I am able to compile ns-2 without "Intrinsic.h" by tweaking the install-script just a little bit. Don't know if this is the way it's supposed to be, but hey, at least it's working out-of-the-box now.
