I'm seeing this bug with a fresh install of 22.04 server: ``` $ DISPLAY=172.17.0.1:0 glxinfo -i name of display: 172.17.0.1:0 Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig ```
This is a Ubuntu-only issue. I am able to successfully run glxinfo over the network from fully-updated Centos7, Rocky9 & Fedora34 machines. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to mesa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/384001 Title: ssh forwarded glx returns "Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig" against older servers Status in X.Org X server: New Status in mesa package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: After upgrading to Jaunty 9.04 from Hardy remote glx rendering (over ssh or just network) against older servers is not working anymore. Currently i've only tested against two X servers: X-Win32 Mac OSX Leopard X11 Server Both of which works fine on the same machine when rebooted into Hardy (still available on another partition) glxinfo outputs: > name of display: localhost:10.0 > Xlib: extension "Generic Event Extension" missing on display "localhost:10.0". > Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig xdpyinfo outputs that i have SGI-GLX and GLX extension, will attach the full output later. I suspect that newer glx client side libs must be needing something not provided by the older servers.
