Thanks for your quick reply.

It turns out that Matlab by default uses an older Mesa software rendering 
module (17.3) when there is no hardware OpenGL. I tried to compile my own 
version with additional optimizations and LLVMPipe etc, but Matlab wouldn't 
accept it. No more time to debug it today, but maybe later.

Is there any documentation on using VirtualGL with x2go? I tried to google it, 
but no luck.

X2go using NX cannot use hardware acceleration. Depending on your setup you can 
try one of these approaches:
- https://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/wiki:development:glx-xlib-workaround
- VirtualGL
- use x2gokdrive https://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/wiki:advanced:x2gokdrive:start
