If your $XORG_PREFIX is not /usr, add the following command: export LIBRARY_PATH=$XORG_PREFIX/lib Install freeglut by running the following commands: ./configure --prefix=$XORG_PREFIX --disable-static && make This package does not come with a test suite. Now, as the root user: make install && mkdir -p $XORG_PREFIX/share/doc/freeglut-&freeglut-version; && cp doc/*.{html,png} $XORG_PREFIX/share/doc/freeglut-&freeglut-version; Command Explanations : This option stops it compiling a static version of the library.
