optirun/Bumblebee is not maintained or supported by us. Can you reproduce this problem with our official VirtualGL packages: https://sourceforge.net/projects/virtualgl/files/2.5.2/ ??
Unfortunately O/S distributors sometimes package VirtualGL incorrectly, in ways that cause certain applications to break (particularly when those applications try to use dlopen() to load libGL.) This is often a result of trying to shoehorn VirtualGL into particular system requirements for DSOs without fundamentally understanding that VirtualGL is an interposer and thus needs to be excepted from those requirements in order to avoid breakage. The fact that libvglfaker.so and libvglfaker-nodl.so are exactly the same size on your system makes me immediately suspicious that you're using an O/S-supplied or downstream VirtualGL package that was packaged incorrectly. Please try again with our official DEB packages. If you are still having problems with those packages, then we can go from there. Also, I assume that you have installed the same version of the nVidia proprietary drivers on both computers and that everything else is mostly the same between the two of them.
