I am not sure I going through the right steps to enable virtualgl. Post
installation I started the Xvfb server with this command:
Xvfb :0.0 -screen 0 1280x720x24 -ac +extension GLX +render -noreset &
I then started what I think is virtualgl with this command expecting any opengl
application running after that would use the GPU:
/opt/VirtualGL/bin/vglclient
The application still only uses the CPU.
Am I missing something?
Thanks for the help btw.
