I hope “installed” does not mean you have copied the files to your jre/ext folder. This is a common hint in JOGL tutorials, but is wrong, since it might break webstart of JOGL applications using other versions than your “installed” one.
You can use our support pack for Netbeans 6, if you are using this IDE or would like to try it. It contains all neccessary jars and natives and includes most of the official JOGL demos as template projects.
If you prefer another IDE, you can use the following code as a starter:
package org.yourorghere;
import com.sun.opengl.util.Animator;
import java.awt.Frame;
import java.awt.event.WindowAdapter;
import java.awt.event.WindowEvent;
import javax.media.opengl.GL;
import javax.media.opengl.GLAutoDrawable;
import javax.media.opengl.GLCanvas;
import javax.media.opengl.GLEventListener;
import javax.media.opengl.glu.GLU;
