Hi there! I have just been member of this forum. I'm sorry because English is not my native language. So there may be some incorrect centences in this mesaage
I am intersted in graphic programming with OpenGL and C/C++ languages. I am confused about what is relationship between OpenGL, GL griver, graphic card driver and OS of course. I wonder what is the interconnction and interaction among their. Thanks.
OpenGL is a graphics API. It is built in graphics driver, which is, of course, highly dependant on the operating system. There is a Mesa3D solution, but that's another story.

Here is one explanation for Windows

an open source GLU replacement library. Much more modern than GLU.
float matrix[16], inverse_matrix[16];
glhLoadIdentityf2(matrix);
glhTranslatef2(matrix, 0.0, 0.0, 5.0);
glhRotateAboutXf2(matrix, angleInRadians);
glhScalef2(matrix, 1.0, 1.0, -1.0);
glhQuickInvertMatrixf2(matrix, inverse_matrix);
glUniformMatrix4fv(uniformLocation1, 1, FALSE, matrix);
glUniformMatrix4fv(uniformLocation2, 1, FALSE, inverse_matrix);
