The output of it might give you a clue as to what package you have
to install with apt-get<br>

this do anything bad for the system or useless? What about the

This is fairly simple actually.<br>
<br>
All you have to do is to install the following things in
your Linux distro.<br>
<br>
<pre>sudo apt-get install freeglut3
sudo apt-get install freeglut3-dev
sudo apt-get install binutils-gold</pre>
And you are done :)<br>
<br>
Here is a sample code for you:<br>
<br>
<pre>/*
* File: main.cpp
* Author: lordamit
*
* Created on July 9, 2012, 12:53 PM
*/
#include <GL/glut.h>
using namespace std;
void draw(void) {
//set Background color
glClearColor(1, 0, 0, 1);
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);
//Draw color
glFlush();
}
//Main program
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
glutInit(&argc, argv);
glutInitDisplayMode(GLUT_SINGLE | GLUT_RGB);
//set window position
glutInitWindowPosition(50, 25);
//set window size
glutInitWindowSize(500, 250);
//set window name
glutCreateWindow("My window");
//Call to the drawing function
glutDisplayFunc(draw);
glutMainLoop();
return 0;
}</pre>
<br>
Save this file using name program.c and compile it using<br>
<pre>gcc -lGL -lglut program.c -o program</pre>
<br>
And execute it using<br>
<pre>./program</pre>
<br>
You are done!</div>

sudo apt-get update<br>
sudo apt-get --fix-missing<br>

You'll need to make sure the
appropriate OpenGL drivers are
installed, plus these libraries:<br
clear="none">
* <i>libSDL 1.2</i><br clear="none">
* <i>libSDL_image</i><br clear="none">
* <i>OpenAL</i><br clear="none">
(Note: To use the client provided with
the Linux package, you will need <i>OpenAL-Soft</i>
instead of OpenAL, otherwise you will
need to compile your own client if you
would rather use normal OpenAL).
