Ok this is what happened: I ran "gcc Concept1.c -I. -I/usr/include/GL/glut.h -L/usr/local/lib -lglut -lGL -lGLU -lm -lX11 -lXext -lXmu -libXi -o Concept1" And got this for an error: /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lX11 collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [Concept1] Error 1 So I did apt-get install xlibs-dev. Soon after I tried the gcc string again. Same error code. Does anyone know howto fix this? Thank you, Scott J. Vaverchak
