Ubuntu is really the wrong platform for programming... There's such a heavy snow of *-dev packages needed to do anything at all. You will of course need to install gcc and perhaps g++. needed libraries might begin with libgl1-mesa-dev, glutg3-dev, libglui-dev, libglut3-dev... Not having an ubuntu machine I can't say how many more would be necessary to install to stop it complaining about missing headers. Also, using SDL would be a lot easier than using OpenGL raw. It sets it up for you so you can use OpenGL raw, but in a relatively simple and platform-independent way. There are many tutorials for SDL opengl available on the internet.
