I'm on Ubuntu 14.04, and using it through ssh, which means I don't have local GUI for it.
I need to run some command that requires GLX, but things aren't going well.
Xvfb :80 -screen 0 1400x900x24 -ac +extension GLX +render -noreset
If I execute the above, it says Initializing built-in extension GLX
. And using vglrun
(VirtualGL) targeting that(:80) as a 3D X server, I can see xdpyinfo
says that GLX is there, although actually trying to use GLX ends with an error maybe because it cannot be a real 3D X server?
But if I do the following, there is no GLX (and of course GLX doesn't work when I replace xdpyinfo
with my command):
xvfb-run -a -n 55 -s "-screen 0 1400x900x24 -ac +extension GLX +render -noreset" xdpyinfo
Am I understanding them in a wrong way?
Could someone please help me? I really need to use xvfb-run
...
Thanks!!
UPDATE: I tried -e option for xvfb-run
, and confirmed that it also prints Initializing built-in extension GLX
. But it still doesn't work.
