anyone knows where i could find a good linux glut tutorial
GLUT is the same on every platform, so you don''t really need a "linux glut tutorial" . It looks like NeHe still doesn''t have the ports of his tutorials back online, so I can''t suggest that... Maybe you can find a mirror of them somewhere?

RTFM!!!

Oh wait, wrong web board, I thought this was /.

you misunderstood me

i have problem compiling glut apps, unless they are in the glut test/demo directory.

i need to know how to set up all the libraries, so the compilation would work
Still sounds like a case for rtfm, but of your compiler switches.

I''ve not used linux for a few years now so I''m quite hazy, but try adding -lgl -lglu -lglut to your compiler command line. If that doesn''t work you probably don''t have libgl libglu or libglut in your lib dir. /usr/local/lib perhaps?

Someone who knows what they''re talking about please correct me...

ok, i fixed the gl glu glut problem

however, i seem to need these libs as well : Xmu, Xi
anyone knows where could i get them?
They''re part of X and you likely have them on your system. Add -L/usr/X11R6/lib to your flags (before the -l flags) and see if that fixes it.

Hope this helps.
found those using locate

they were in another directory, just copied them to the distro lib directory

damn, it''s such a mess when using a distro, better make LFS soon
