collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

can someone help me please, i am trying to compile one of the examples in glfw site but gets these errors.

2

Add -lXrandr to linker options.

3

Thanks! (It wasn’t on the the list that glfw example)

4

I get “ld: cannot find -lXrandr” when i try that on CodeBlocks. Any hint on what other flags i an use or why it doesn’t work?

5

try to install it :

sudo apt-get install libxrandr-dev

but on my ubuntu 8.04 it is already there by default. What ubuntu version do you have ?
