title: Learning OpenGL in Ubuntu
body: <p>I'm trying to learn <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenGL" rel="noreferrer">OpenGL</a> and improve my C++ skills by going through the <a href="http://nehe.gamedev.net/" rel="noreferrer">Nehe guides</a>, but all of the examples are for Windows and I'm currently on Linux.  I don't really have any idea how to get things to work under Linux, and the code on the site that has been ported for Linux has way more code in it that's not explained (so far, the only one I've gotten to work is the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_DirectMedia_Layer" rel="noreferrer">SDL</a> example: <a href="http://nehe.gamedev.net/data/lessons/linuxsdl/lesson01.tar.gz" rel="noreferrer">http://nehe.gamedev.net/data/lessons/linuxsdl/lesson01.tar.gz</a>).  Is there any other resource out there that's a bit more specific towards OpenGL under Linux?</p>
