Hi,
I am trying to use a remote program which is installed on a remote linux
machine. In these situations I usually do;
0) on my windows machine I start cygwin and afterwards use startxwin.sh
1) ssh -X name-of-the-gateway-machine
2) ssh -X name-of-the-linux-machine-inside-the-remote-network
3) program-name &
and programs like emacs or firefox appear on my desktop.
But for some other program which uses more advanced graphics it does not
work, I get the following error message;
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display "localhost:10.0"
.
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display "localhost:10.0".
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display "localhost:10.0".

Reading cygwin forums I tried two times ssh -Y instead of ssh -X and now I
don't get the previous error message, instead I get;
1) when trying to connect to the first machine; Warning: No xauth data;
using fake authentication data for X11 forwarding.
2) connecting to the second machine and starting the program;
Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display "localhost:10.0".
The program starts, the main "screen" appears, but the menus don't appear,
so I can not use the program.
Do you know how could I overcome this situation ?
Thanks
