Hi!
I’m kind of new to this thing with graphics programming… what do I need to begin programming with OpenGL in Linux?
Right now I’m running a RH 7.1 system with a GeForce2MX…
what do I need more?
OpenGL header files?
GLUT (whatever that is)
what do I need?
Regards,
Kristian

You gl lib files and header files to make opengl programs.
If you install Nvidia drivers you get gl.h from it. If you use tar files you have to copy them right place youself.
You can get glu and glut from mesa-common and mesa-common-devel rpm’s if you want to use them. Check web were you can use them.
with these you can get started. Look some examples or tutorial (maybe nehe’s there are linux ports at his tutorials, they are very simple so they are good to start).
