   OpenGL not for Unix !?!?!?!?!?!
  Hello.I have have found MANY Tutorials for OpenGL, C++ and Windows. But not even one for OpenGL, C++ and Unix... Most probably I am blind, but...I Know, that OpenGL is platform independent and the standard library for C++ too. But I cannot found a tutorial, that initiate OpenGL with C++ for Unix. Can somebody help me to find some?Tagamoga 
  does SDL work? That should take care of all your window setup problems ;  What is SDL? I am really new at Unix.And i dont have any setup problems with windows. I want to start an OpenGL scene in Unix...Or do I misunderstanding something?Tagamoga ;  when you say ''unix'' do you mean ''unix'' or ''Linux''?SDL Site;  Oh,... I did not know, this is such a big difference... ~is ashamed~I mean Suse Linux 8.2 bought 6 days ago.... ~big grin~Tagamoga ;  There is no big difference, Unix is just a generic term for many OSes including Solaris, Mac OS X, Linux, AIX that behave very similar ;  OpenGL is OpenGL on any platform. Unix itself does not have a standard windowing environment, however the most common one is X Window System. There is a library that comes with all X implementations called GLX, which provides functions for setting up a rendering context on platforms that use X. Take a look at this. ;  Most of the NeHe tutorials have been converted to linux. Look, as well at cone3d, one of gamedevs "hosted sites".   The official zorx website;  Definitely check out SDL, it''s a platform-independent graphics library that allows you to use OpenGL with it.  There are a lot of NeHe tutorials for it.  Try  libsdl.org and look at the OpenGL with SDL tutorial.  There are also libraries like GLUT that are also platform-independent, but I haven''t personally tried any of them. ;  Also check out the tutorials on nehe.gamedev.net. At least the first few tutorials have conversions for GLX as well as GLUT and SDL.Hope that helps!Drag0n -----------------------------"Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the universe trying to build bigger and better idiots.
