Hi, I have a weird problem with opengl forwarding via ssh. I am running debian jessie on my BeagleBone Black (armhf) that I use for my CNC machine by running machinekit. Everything works as expected, I even got indirect opengl rendering working when I connect to the BBB using windows.
Now I tried to upgrade my setup using a more recent stretch based image. I am not able to use opengl forwarding on stretch. The following test setup: (A) linux machine running ubuntu (Nvidia GPU) (B) BBB running jessie (C) BBB running stretch I connect from (A) -> (*) by ssh -X x@host When I connect from (A) to (B): > export LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1; glxinfo|head name of display: localhost:10.0 display: localhost:10 screen: 0 direct rendering: No (LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT set) server glx vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation server glx version string: 1.4 server glx extensions: When I connect from (A) to (C): > export LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1; glxinfo|head Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig name of display: localhost:10.0 Did something change from jessie -> stretch concerning x permissions? Running plain x apps like xterm works in all cases. I installed lxde on (c) and glxinfo/glxgears runs fine under lxde on the BBB. Any hints? Simon
