The glxChooseVisual() call's dying because it can't connect to DRI, probably because either: 1) Your thin clients aren't supporting DRI 2) There's a bug in the DRI libraries somewhere in handling remote displays. Here's a test: can you run glxgears on one of the thin clients? That should give a simple test as to whether rendering's at all possible. Also, there may be a way to start blender without DRI being used. Scott -- Scott L. Balneaves | Try to relax and enjoy the crisis.
