Installing GLUT 3.3 under OpenLinux

Sumac · January 16, 2002, 9:27am

I am a first time Open GL programmer, and I was attempting to install the GLUT 3.3 distribution on my machine under OpenLinux 3.1. I follwed the directions until I got to the point where I was supposed to do this:

>ln -s libglut.so.3.3 libglut.so.3
>ln -s libglut.so.3.3 libglut.so

The problem seems to be that only libglut.a was made during ‘make’ and I cannot seem to find the libglut.so file to link them.

If anyone has any suggestions, I would surely appreciate it

Check the makefile or use the libglut.a file.

try glut 3.7.3
it will be better and own more functionnalities.
but it’s just an advise.
