Your code is perfectly fine (at least compiles in my eclipse environment - using 32bit JOGL2). Classpath also looks ok but the javac compiler error "cannot find symbol" is usually a classpath problem.

Maybe the jogl-2.0-pre-20100928-windows-amd64.zip is broken again ? There was an issue with amd64 build a couple of days ago. Take a look here: http://jogamp.762907.n3.nabble.com/Support-of-windows-amd64-system-is-broken-tt1486942.html#a1560071

So try this build as suggested my Michael: http://jogamp.org/deployment/autobuilds/jogl-b167-2010-09-14_16-31-14/build/
