Author GLUT Programming

I have decided I wanted to get into OpenGL programming as a hobby but I
have already hit my first sticky spot and I haven't even typed one line of
code.

Before I started, I read a few opening chapters of the online tutorials. I
noticed they were each looking for the GL/glut.h header. I checked to see
if the file existed on my Mandrake 8.2 system and sure enough, it was
there. I then open the header file to read its content and notice it
relies on another header, GL/glu.h. Unfortunately this is where my
problems began. No glu.h anywhere on my system.

No big deal, I thought, I'll do some quick google searches and I'll
eventually find out what library, if any, it was supposed to come with. An
hour later and I am no further along then I was when I started.

Would anybody happen to know where I can find the header and anything else
that is supposed to go along with it?

Thank you all in advance.

Well, I guess I should have looked for an hour and a half. Shortly after
typing this message, I found a reference messaglu on the SuSE website.
Good old rpmfind.net had what I was looking for and I was on my way.

Thanks again...
