How do you compile an OpenGL program on Ubuntu?

Question

When I try to compile the first example to this page using:

cc -o abgr abgr.c -lglut -lGLU -lGL -lXmu -lXext -lX11 -lm 

I get an error message:

 /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lXmu collect2: ld returned 1 exit status 

What is the " lXmu "? How do I compile it?
