Hi, a small feedback on this bug if I may. I noticed that you can run x11vnc to get 3D acceleration. The drawback is that it attaches to a real, physical X11 session.
>From what I understand from your original bug report, you want to connect multiple thin clients to one machine that will provide stellarium to them. Even though you can run multiple X11 sessions on one machine, I'm not sure if you can export them all with x11vnc. From my simple investigation it seems that the physical session must be *really* running on a screen (otherwise you get no screen updates in vncviewer). Therefore you are confined to a single x11 session per physical machine. Another approach is VirtualGL (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VirtualGL) which does some magic to provide GL to many displays at once (I think it manages the problem above by multiplexing GL commands to a single X11 server). I haven't tried that yet. However the original bug report was about stellarium crashing. As far as I know, it's now fixed. Petter, can I close this bug? I think that "multiple-vnc-sessions-with-OpenGL-support" problem belongs more to xrdp and the whole X11 crowd. You may experiment with VirtualGL - I will try it myself if I find some free time.
