I'm sure they could issue me a demo license, but I wouldn't have time to pursue obtaining/installing the app anytime soon unless the effort were funded. So, let's try a few other approaches first ...
First-- can you verify that you're using v190.32 or later of the nVidia drivers? If not, then please upgrade and retry. There was a known issue with nVidia drivers 180.00 - 190.31 which affected VirtualGL's ability to dynamically load OpenGL/GLX functions from libGL in certain cases. You mentioned that it works whenever you run it with the VGL Transport. I suspect that the reason why is that some of the GLX calls are slipping by VirtualGL somehow. You can confirm this by attempting to run it with the VGL Transport but disabling GLX on the 2D X server (the client machine's X server.) It should fail in a similar manner to how it fails with TurboVNC, because the GLX calls that are slipping by VirtualGL can no longer be executed by the 2D X server. Another useful datapoint would be to run with Abaqus 6.9, if you have access to it. I have user reports that state that Abaqus 6.9 is known to work with VirtualGL as long as you use the -nodl switch. I'm not familiar enough with strace-- could it track the GLX and OpenGL calls that the application is attempting to make to libGL.so.1? If so, then yes, it would be helpful. I thought strace could only be used for system calls, though. I guess the ideal situation is that Abaqus is simply using a GLX extension or something else that VirtualGL doesn't currently support (although I don't know what that could be-- I thought we had covered everything.)
