I would like to learn OpenGL programming on LINUX. I have found that I learn the quickest if I have a small self contained working project I can study and tweak. I could work with C, C++ or python source code.
Where can I find a good starter OpenGL example project that builds without too much hassle on Ubuntu 10.04?
Nehe is a really good teacher of OpenGL
http://nehe.gamedev.net/data/lessons/lesson.asp?lesson=01
The lessons are windows based but at the buttom of the page you can find vcodes for other os.
This is the link for the basic openGL app for linux:

Edit:
Check out te glut library also it makes things easier.
Here some nice samples too.
