using fedora core 1
glut 3.7-8 installed
trying to compile some trival opengl code
the only include is glut.h
gcc -o test simple.c -L/usr/include/GL lglut
when I run this I get a “glut.h:no such file or directory”
thanks from a noob

Maybe glut.h is not in standard include directory, usually …/include/GL (you should include it like this #include <GL/glut.h>). Try searching file system for it, and if it finds it in other dir than include/GL just use -I command line option for gcc.
Hope this helps.
I don’t do much in the way of command line stuff, I use Kdevelope under fedora, it takes care of all that stuff.
But I think you have your command line set wrong.
Should it not be more like this"
gcc -o test simple.c -I/usr/lib/include -L/usr/lib -lglut
-L = Library directory
-l = library file to use
-I = Include directory

thanks
this is off topic
but, having never used kdevelope,
where in kdevelope do you set it to point to the library / include files needed to compile opengl
cheers
Kdevelope set’s all the library/include directorys for you, you just tell it what librarys to include in your project.
If you are using glut, just create a C/C++ project. Then under project options, linker settings add: -lGL -lGLU -lglut

Hi,
Just got glut-3.7-8 to install over the buggy 3.7-12.
My glut examples compiled fine, under kdevelope.
Here is what I have done:
Installed Fedora.
Installed the runtime and development files, glut-3.7-8.rpm and glut-devel-3.7-8.rpm. Note I rebuilt the glut-3.7-8 from the src rpm.
if you had the newer glut build files installed, you can over write them with rpm --install --oldpackage --force glut-3.7-8.rpm
I did not have to install any onther openGL librarys, or support files other then glut.
Also have setup SDL on fedora and had succesful compiles.
