Qiang,

I am not an expert, but I suspect that the problem lies in the fact that while 
you have the libX11.so* libraries on your disk, they have not been installed 
by RPM, and so are not in the RPM database, meaning that RPM cannot find them 
to resolve dependencies.

What I *think* you need to do is build an RPM of your XFree installation, and 
then "install" that using RPM.

Hopefully, others on this list will correct me if I am wrong, or there is a 
better way.

By the way, congratulations on having built and installed XFree yourself. I 
always try to download such things in binary form, since I find manual 
building more work than I want to invest.

Cheers!
Nik
