This is great news. So i've already set up to run in the server with ATI HD6800 hardware, and installed it in a few testing machines on the LAN to behave as clients i followed the documentation, first did vlgconnect to the server, then i did vlgrun -c proxy -fps 10 -- VirtualGL/bin/glxgears this starts the window while connected over ssh to the server. My question is, how do i direct this app inside the xvfb running on the client machine? usually the process to run something inside Xvfb is like: 1) start Xvfb: Xvfb :1 -screen 0 1024x768x24 -fbdir vfb_test/fbdir & 2) set default display export DISPLAY=localhost:1.0 3) start app xterm -e '/usr/X11/bin/xcalc' & What would i need to change in how i start the glxgears sample so that it will run inside Xvfb? P.S: not related to this question, but vlgrun glxgears runs a bit choppy on the client, and it reports high FPS (apparently ignoring the -fps option) this is the output ERROR: ld.so: object 'libdlfaker.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored. ERROR: ld.so: object 'librrfaker.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored.
