Open GL for redhat 9

ShakeNBake · 10-19-2003, 05:10 PM

Hi,

I want to compile a program that uses openGL,

but it gives me a problem:

GL/glut.h: no such file or directory.

I know i need to get open gl library from somewhere, but im a noob, and I have no clue where to start looking.

Thanks

What graphics card( and which drivers for it) do you have? Did you try installing mesa libraries?

http://www.mesa3d.org/

It's an OpenGL alternative for Linux

Good luck!

get the glut-devel rpm. match the version with the version of glut you're using.

here's the glut and glut-devel rpms for rh9
