Hi all,
I would like to use freeglut instead of GLUT for my Haskell OpenGL program, but when I place the freeglut dll in the program's directory and try to run the program on Windows XP, I get the following error message:
user error (unknown GLUT call glutSetOption, check for freeglut)
Can anyone help?

I searched for the error message and found the solution at page: http://netsuperbrain.com/blog/posts/freeglut-windows-hopengl-hglut/ Before this blog was written, I had the same problem; I received the following answer from Peter Verswyvelen:
But when building GLFW, make sure that the GHC gcc-libdirectory comes *before* the MinGW/Cygwin directory inyour PATH environment variable, since when linking,the LD.EXE bundled with GHC *must* be used.
