You for got to include the most important library of all… the openGL library! the other two are helper library’s.

link the following:
-lGL -lGLU -lglut

I have a couple of glut examples for linux posted on my website:
www.angelfire.com/linux/nexusone/

  1. Idea: stop cross posting, once is enough
  2. Idea: it DOES find glx, i am very sure
  3. Idea: read other threads in this forum and you will find the solution to your problem
  4. Idea: try the search function of this forum before posting a new thread

hope this helps

I think I’ve answered this question about 10 times in the last month. Look through the archives.

I compile all of my glut programs like this
g++ something.c -o something -lGL -lGLU -lglut -lm
