Given that the issue is with indirect rendering, it is either a change in xorg-server in XQuartz or a change in libGL or the X11 stack on the remote system. My hunch is that the remote libGL changed and possibly something in XQuartz's IGLX support changed. If you can try running older versions of XQuartz to see if it works with an older version of XQuartz, that might point to a change that could be made to get this working again. Although as I mentioned, IGLX is on life support in general, not just in XQuartz. > Is > this a problem with Nvidia? or is this something only XQuartz would be > able to fix (assuming you had the man-power) > > Also any chance for a work around?
