You are giving up too soon; you just barely started getting help here.

Since the Globe_3d examples work, the problem is in the way you are
trying to build adaglut.adb

Compare that to how the Globe_3d examples are built.

I don't use AdaGide; do you know what command line the "build" menu
invokes?

No, just more patience, and willingness to learn how things work.
