I've been looking around for bindings to OpenGL or Glut.
I know the SGI/Gnat compiler comes with the bindings, but I havent found
them for the free Gnat on Linux/x86. I know where the source code is,
I've downloaded the Debian source packages and suppose I could see about
compiling them myself, but I running into problems getting them to link
properly.
Do I need to specifically purchase the GNAT compiler for Linux to get
these libs? Not much of a problem, but if I intend to distribute my
source code freely, that could cause a problem for others trying to
compile the source without the bindings. I could also code up my own
bindings, which isnt entirely out of the question, but I'm assuming that
Gnat bindings are a bit more stable.
Basically, I'm a little confused as to the status of the OpenGL/Glut
bindings for Ada. Any help would be appreciated.

I don't have an SGI around to check, but I would not be at all
suprised if the OpenGL bindings that come with SGI/Gnat weren't SGI
bindings with an SGI copyright (and non-Free license), genereated by
SGI's famous proprietary binding generator. After all, OpenGL is an
SGI API...

You could try the thin binding to the SDL library. SDL itself is a
multiplatform game development library with support for OpenGL and
Glut.
You can find SDL at http://www.libsdl.org and the Ada binding at
http://adasdl.sourceforge.net.
HTH,
