Thanks. It works. But how to configure Linux to be able compiling
without -L/usr/X11R6/lib ?

When I tried:
 gcc  -lglut -lGLU -lGL -lXi -lXmu -lX11 -lXext -lm -o triangle triangle.c

I got:
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lXi
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Which of the following componets would you think is better to install?:

I've done.

Which of the following set of  components would you think is better to
install?:

 mesa-glide2 3.1-17
 mesa-widget 3.1-17
 mesademos
...? (what else?)
 
 or (instead)
 mesa-dev
  mesag3
 ...(what else?)
