Can you provide more details about your setup? I cannot reproduce it. Both X11 
and AGL versions of rgl work for me just fine (CRAN binary, OS X 10.6.8).

There are several ways to run rgl, so it would be useful to know
a) what is your OS X version
b) are you running X11 and if so which one
c) if you are not running the X11 version, is this from R.app or Terminal or 
any other GUI

Cheers,
Simon
