    GLUT: Fatal Error in (unamed): could not open display:

    I get this error when trying to run my program in a unix environment:

    GLUT: Fatal Error in (unamed): could not open display:

    Anyone know what this is and how I can fix it? Thanks.

    Seems that OpenGL isnt installed properly or you are requesting a visual that is not supported by the current setup.

    Run "glxinfo" and see what it says.

    Ok, I ran glxinfo and it gave me this:

    Error: unable to open display (null).

    What does this mean?

    There is no OpenGL installed at all.
