When remotely launching a pvserver in this sort of configuration (i.e. egl
+ directly via an ssh command), a few things make this easier / more
reliable:
- Disable OpenGL version testing.
- This works around an issue with EGL in pvserver at the moment with
remote rendering.
- Use reverse port forwarding instead.
- Basically the client listens and the server initiates a connection
back through the tunnel.
- Run the connection command within an xterm to be able to easily see
pvserver output and to enter any necessary credentials via stdin (if you
can't do key based authentication, for example).
- Not necessary but a nice to have
Combining both of these, try the following settings:
- Server Type = Client / Server (reverse connection)
- Port: 11772
- Command:
xterm -e ssh -R 11772:localhost:11772 user@remotebox
/path/to/install/bin/pvserver --disable-xdisplay-test --reverse-connection
--client-host=localhost --server-port=11772

When using EGL, there is no X server interaction so the DISPLAY variable
isn't used.

Try with the above mentioned connection configuration and we'll go from
there.
