This is a known problem when accessing recent Linux releases remotely via ssh -X.
The default X-server configuration has changed and openGL applications no longer work. Supposedly it should be possible to revert the server behaviour with a flag on startup but I haven't been able to do so. I found a nice piece of software called vglrun that works around this problem and restores the old behaviour of openGL applications like coot and PyMol, e.g. 'vglrun coot' or 'vglrun pymol'.
