Can i have a link or something of a simple example in which OpenGL are used under Linux? Only OpenGL, no glut or other library… i would like to be able to open a window, change the device context (or something similar) and see a colored cube in my window…thanx

“or other library…” Well, you’re going to need at least glx, which comes with X when OpenGL is installed, See the tutorials in nehe.gamedev.net and check the ones that say “Linux/GLX”; they’re as raw as one can get using X.

Under Linux, GLX is mandatory; have a look at NeHe’s tutorials:

Here are also a few X11/GLX demos I wrote, complete with source code:
