Emacs must be compiled with X support. This means that if you compile it
yourself, you should configure with the option
--with-x11 or so. Read the docs. If you got a precompiled version,
maybe at the same site a precompiled version for X exists. You did not
specify which OS and system you were using, as well as the version
number of Emacs, so I cannot be more specific than that.
