I am not sure if you would be directly venturing into developing for openGL, I am assuming that you will be using openGL to develop graphic applications for GNU/Linux. So the starting place would be to learn about the Graphic system in GNU/Linux works and what are the projects working on it. Here is a page[1] which does that . Next a basic overview of OpenGL is must and is provided by the wikipedia page [2] and afterwards you can read the specification to have a deep understanding of OpenGL . I think the specification would be more than enough to get you started . If you felt that OpenGL misses some features , you can then hack the code of OpenGL and start contributing code to it :) Links : 1. http://jonsmirl.googlepages.com/graphics.html 2. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opengl 3. http://www.opengl.org/documentation/current_version/ Would love to see some 3 D ( or atleast 2D ) apps coming from you :D Regards, Pavithran -- pavithran sakamuri www.pavithran.org _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, email ilugc-requ...@ae.iitm.ac.in with "unsubscribe <password> <address>" in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
