Description damora@us.ibm.com 2016-12-19 18:30:35 UTC

1. ssh -X <remote Linux served running X11/GLX extension> from MacOS sierra MacBook Pro
2. execute glxgears or glxinfo and the following errors occur which seem to suggest that XQuartz on MacOS Sierra does not support indirect GL rendering context

  Major opcode of failed request:  149 (GLX)

Indirect GLX is no longer supported by default.  You can enable it with:

    defaults write org.macosforge.xquartz.X11 enable_iglx -bool true
