Adam,
libglut.so.3 is usually located in /usr/lib64 on x86_64 systems.
goto that directly and first check if you have any glut lib:
cd /usr/lib64 ls libglut*
but it could also be found in /usr/lib or even /usr/X11R6/lib
if you have one, try making a symbolic link like this (assuming there is one /usr/X11R6/lib), with root priviledges:
cd /usr/lib64 ln -s /usr/X11R6/lib/libglut.so.3
If you can't find libglut, it may need to be installed. Google 'libglut rpm'.

I am trying to install Freesurfer on RedHat Linux EL3 x86_64. I am using a csh shell and the setup seems to work fine. But, when I test tkmedit, it gives me an error:
“tkmedit: error while loading shared libraries: libglut.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory”
I have seen threads that say I need to locate libglut and create a symbolic link from libglut.so.3 to my current version.
Where is libglut located and how do I create a link?
Anyone have this problem with explicit fix instructions?
Thanks,
Adam
