Stick to a tutorial instead of trying to guess:

http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk-tutorial/stable/

You'll need to link manually to gtk.

thanks, i did use a tutorial, just not a very good one i guess :\

Linking isn't the issue; it's not even finding the header file. That tells me you probably need to install libgtk1.2-dev or libgtk2.0-dev (pick the appropriate one).

you don't tell gcc where to find gtk
you should type this:
gcc fun.c `pkg-config --libs --cflags gtk+-2.0` -o Funlol.out
After you isntall libgtk2.0-dev
