Description of problem: In certain cases, we are unable to run OpenGL on a remote RHEL6 system. How reproducible: Always, if you start on a system with the proprietary nvidia driver installed and ssh into a system without the nvidia driver. Steps to Reproduce: 1. "ssh -X" from a system with the nvidia driver installed into a RHEL6 system without. 2. run glxinfo, glxgears, etc. Actual results: [system-with-nvidiadriver]$ ssh -X rhel6-without-nvidia [rhel6-without-nvidia]$ glxinfo name of display: localhost:12.0 libGL error: No matching fbConfigs or visuals found libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation) Major opcode of failed request: 153 (GLX) Minor opcode of failed request: 3 (X_GLXCreateContext) Value in failed request: 0x0 Serial number of failed request: 27 Current serial number in output stream: 30 Expected results: [system-without-nvidiadriver]$ ssh -X rhel6-without-nvidia [rhel6-without-nvidia]$ glxinfo libGL error: failed to open drm device: No such file or directory libGL error: failed to load driver: i915 name of display: localhost:13.0 display: localhost:13 screen: 0 direct rendering: Yes server glx vendor string: SGI server glx version string: 1.4 server glx extensions: GLX_ARB_create_context, GLX_ARB_create_context_profile, GLX_ARB_fbconfig_float, GLX_ARB_framebuffer_sRGB, GLX_ARB_multisample, GLX_EXT_create_context_es2_profile, GLX_EXT_framebuffer_sRGB, GLX_EXT_import_context, GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap, GLX_EXT_visual_info, GLX_EXT_visual_rating, GLX_MESA_copy_sub_buffer, GLX_OML_swap_method, GLX_SGI_swap_control, GLX_SGIS_multisample, GLX_SGIX_fbconfig, GLX_SGIX_pbuffer, GLX_SGIX_visual_select_group, GLX_INTEL_swap_event client glx vendor string: Mesa Project and SGI client glx version string: 1.4 client glx extensions: GLX_ARB_create_context, GLX_ARB_create_context_profile, GLX_ARB_create_context_robustness, GLX_ARB_fbconfig_float, GLX_ARB_framebuffer_sRGB, GLX_ARB_get_proc_address, GLX_ARB_multisample, GLX_EXT_import_context, GLX_EXT_visual_info, GLX_EXT_visual_rating, GLX_EXT_fbconfig_packed_float, GLX_EXT_framebuffer_sRGB, GLX_EXT_create_context_es2_profile, GLX_MESA_copy_sub_buffer, GLX_MESA_multithread_makecurrent, GLX_MESA_query_renderer, GLX_MESA_swap_control, GLX_OML_swap_method, GLX_OML_sync_control, GLX_SGI_make_current_read, GLX_SGI_swap_control, GLX_SGI_video_sync, GLX_SGIS_multisample, GLX_SGIX_fbconfig, GLX_SGIX_pbuffer, GLX_SGIX_visual_select_group, GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap, GLX_INTEL_swap_event, GLX_EXT_buffer_age ...
