Hi

If the GLCanvas receives the key events, the key listener will have to be added to it instead of the JFrame, it's a basic Swing problem, it's not a JOGL problem. You could have the same kind of problem in a 2D game using only AWT, you have to put the key listener into the right component.

By the way, replace new GLU() by GLU.createGLU(GL) in order to use a more capable instance of GLU. glFlush is probably useless here.

Good luck.
