If you’re missing the curl/curl.h header file, chances are you’re just missing the correct dev package file for the curl library.

sudo apt-get install libcurl4-gnutls-dev

That should fix it.

If you’re running off a live USB disk or changing your graphics card the error below might appear when Xorg is looking for the wrong drivers or device. You might also get this error while using the Nvidia drivers, I found however this was caused by some of the extra options added into the xorg.conf file (usually located /etc/X11/xorg.conf). If the case is that it’s a problem with the aditional options I suggest making a backup of the file and attempting to comment out (#) aditional options, this will need a bit more of an expert eye to see what isn’t needed though.. You can also use the following to rollback to a working version when using the Nvidia drivers.

There is a pretty simple fix, if it is caused by broken or changed xorg.conf file:

Fix:
Make a backup of your current Xorg.conf, just in case something goes even more wrong and it can be easily restored:

sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.bckup

Now you’ll want to restore the failsafe (sometimes called xorg.conf.backup) config to be used as the default:

sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.failsafe /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Yeah, it was that simple (if this error was caused by a broken or changed xorg.conf anyway. So you can continue and start the x server with:

startx
