You need to be more careful with your command line switches. "-L"
specifies a directory for the linker to search in, so "-Lw32api" and
"-LX11R6" are both meaningless. You use "-L" to specify a path and "-l"
to specify the name of the library. Case matters.
Try the following instead:
gcc glxsimple.c -o glxsimple -I/usr/X11R6/include -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lGL
-lX11
(You must have the xorg-x11-devel package installed for this to work.)
Furthermore, for questions regarding anything X11-related, the proper
list is cygwin-xfree <at> cygwin <dot> com.
