doomcube - A GPL network visualizer

I stummbled onto the Spinning Cube of Potential Doom at: http://www.kismetwireless.net/doomcube/

It looks very interesting but unfortunately I cannot get it running on my Arch 0.7.1, xorg7. I get the error:

./doomcube -i eth0 -d 10.0.100.0/255.255.255.0
freeglut  ERROR:  Function <glutBitmapCharacter> called without first calling 'glutInit'.

Anyone been able to run this on arch? or any suggestions on how to fix this error. Unfortunately my usual debugging tool (google) has not been much help.

Re: doomcube - A GPL network visualizer

Quick fix: add a line containing

 glutInit(&argc,argv);

before

 init_gl_screen(screenx, screeny);

on line 556 (sdl_doomcube.cc).

This thing looks quite static, is it supposed to rotate?
