1.Ubuntu下安装OpenGL/Glut库
OpenGL（全写Open Graphics Library）是个定义了一个跨编程语言、跨平台的编程接口的规格，它用于三维图象（二维的亦可）。OpenGL是个专业的图形程序接口，是一个功能强大，调用方便的底层图形库。

ubuntu下安装OpenGL的方式如下：
sudo apt-get install freeglut3 freeglut3-dev #freeglut是一款开源的图形编程接口
sudo apt-get install binutils-gold #Ubuntu>=11.10的版本需要安装此包以解决连接问题

2. 通过链接OpenGL/Glut库来编译文件
g++ -lGL -lglut color_cube.cpp -o color_cube

3.解决编译时的链接错误问题
问题：
undefined reference to `gluPerspective’
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
undefined reference to “gluLookAt”

解决办法：
g++ -lGL -lGLU -lglut color_cube.cpp -o color_cube

4.一段实例程序：
