http://packages.debian.org Search for glut.h reveals: glutg3-dev is the package that you want to install. > I do not plan to use mesa, cos as far a I know their main purpose was > for glide and non-nvidia opengl.....just heard rumors, but i know myself > to work with perl and mesa modules that totally failed. Mesa is the "official" OpenGL implementation. The part where it gets tricky is that Mesa needs to know about the hardware rendering stuff, so you have software rendering mesa libs, XFree86-4.x GLX mesa libs, and propriatery Nvidea mesa libs. However, you just want glut, so you _should_ be okay. > Any hints for "official" OpenGL headers??? http://packages.debian.org is what you want for questions of this type. M
