[VirtualGL-Users] VirtualGL & Ansys - help!

[Vic <vir...@be...>]

Hi All.

I'm in trouble. I'm on customer site trying to get TurboVNC/VirtualGL
working with Ansys, and it's not going well...

The server box is running RHEL4, with VirtualGL-2.1.1-20081203 and
turbovnc-0.5-20081124 (I downlaoded the binaries - but source builds don't
seem any different). I'm running on an Nvidia graphics chipset with v169
drivers.

Running up the TurboVNC server seems to work; if I connect (from the same
machine), all seems well. If I connect from a remote machine, I get an
error from Xlib saying that GLX is missing on that display - but if I run
the app through vglrun, that error goes away.

So far so good. But Ansys doesn't run - it segfaults. Increasing the
maximum stack size (with ulimit -s) delays the bomb, but it bombs anyway
(before anything useful has happened).

Anyone know how I can start debugging this?

Thanks!

Vic.
