OpenGL and Linux (slackware 8.0)

HEAD · 2001-11-19T16:05:04

I have been running linux for a while, but I recently became interested (or re-interested) in game programming and the like. I have been looking around and OpenGL seems to be the API I wish to use. I have but one problem: how do I set up everything. I have an nVidia card so I have got the GLX and all that installed but I dont know where to get GLU nor can I find anywhere that mentions what a basic framework for getting a window(or fullscreen) open and OpenGL initialized etc... If anyone can a) tell me where to go or b) help me please do. thanks HEAD

Ooops, i didn''t see your new message about no rpm. Get the alien package converter and convert the rpm to a format that works with your distro (including a simple tarball):
