OpenGL over X11/SSH

[Andrea Venturoli]

Hello.

I apoligize if this is a FAQ, but I could not find any useful pointer.


I'm used to connecting via ssh to a couple of "heavy duty" servers on my 
LAN; I've got X11 forward working and in fact I usually run emacs, 
xterm, sometimes even FireFox.

Now I need to try an OpenGL-based program, but I'm not able to get it right.



> % glxinfo

AFAICT this should work, albeit without hardware acceleration, which is 
fine to me since this is only going to be a test.



Any help?

  bye & Thanks
