Hi Sophia, This works on my old Mac with macOS 10.9 and XQuartz 2.7.7. However, on a newer Mac with macOS 10.12 and XQuartz 2.7.11 ssh forwarding of OpenGL apps doesn't work at all for me. Not even the "glxgears" test program works.
The good news is: VirtualGL works really well, using macOS 10.12 as the client and a Linux workstation as the server. mac # /opt/VirtualGL/bin/vglconnect linux linux # vglrun pymol See also: https://virtualgl.org/vgldoc/2_2_1/#hd004003 Cheers, Thomas > On Nov 17, 2018, at 4:12 AM, Tan, Sophia <sophia....@ucsf.edu> wrote: > > Hi developers, > > I'm using PyMOL (2.2.3) on a Linux remote workstation, and am using X > forwarding on my Mac by "ssh -Y etc." > The X forwarding works on other applications, but for PyMOL, only the top > menu bar with the command line shell output is displayed; the bottom display > is all white, no matter what I try to load. > > How can I get the bottom display to work ? > > Thank you, > Sophia > <Screen Shot 2018-11-16 at 6.58.48 PM.png> -- Thomas Holder PyMOL Principal Developer Schrödinger, Inc. _______________________________________________ PyMOL-users mailing list Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/pymol-users@lists.sourceforge.net Unsubscribe: https://sourceforge.net/projects/pymol/lists/pymol-users/unsubscribe
