  1. It is possible to play 0ad from serverA using VirtualGL (http://www.virtualgl.org/). Install TurboJPEG and VirtualGL from sourceforge on the serverA and computerB From the manual: TIn the same terminal/xterm window of the Thin Client, open a session into the VirtualGL server: /opt/VirtualGL/bin/vglconnect {user}@{server}Replace {user} with your user account name on the VirtualGL server and {server} with the hostname or IP address of that server. In the SSh session, start a 3D application using VirtualGL: /opt/VirtualGL/bin/vglrun [vglrun options] {application_executable_or_script} {arguments}(I have problems with the sound, but that is another issue) Enjoy it!
  2. Is it possible to run 0ad using a thin client? I summarise the experiments I have made about this issue. Short answer: In my personal experience, No. [Edit: YES!!, with VirtualGL. See below] Long answer: Hardware: serverA (8 GB, AMD iii, 2800 Mghz, Radeon), computerB (old laptop), both using Lubuntu 14.04, in a local area network (LAN), --serverA 1000 Mb/s, computerB 100 Mb/s--. I have tried this experiments: x11vnc in serverA, ssvnc in computerB. 0ad runs very slowly. Not playable.LTSP in serverA, computerB Thin Client to PAE boot from serverA. 0ad runs very slowly. Not playable.Access via ssh -X serverA from computerB. 0ad does not show any graphics. I get the following errorlibGL error: failed to authenticate magic 3libGL error: failed to load driver: i915x2go, vncserver. 0ad does not run. I get the following information:WARNING: Failed to set the video mode to fullscreen for the chosen resolution 1440x850:24 ("Couldn't find matching GLX visual"), falling back to windowed modeERROR: SetVideoMode failed: 1024x768:24 0 ("Couldn't find matching GLX visual")terminate called after throwing an instance of 'PSERROR_System_VmodeFailed'what(): System_VmodeFailedAborted (core dumped)WARNING: Failed to set the video mode to fullscreen for the chosen resolution 1440x850:24 ("Couldn't find matching GLX visual"), falling back to windowed modeERROR: SetVideoMode failed: 1024x768:24 0 ("Couldn't find matching GLX visual")terminate called after throwing an instance of 'PSERROR_System_VmodeFailed'what(): System_VmodeFailedAborted (core dumped)WARNING: Failed to set the video mode to fullscreen for the chosen resolution 1440x850:24 ("Couldn't find matching GLX visual"), falling back to windowed modeERROR: SetVideoMode failed: 1024x768:24 0 ("Couldn't find matching GLX visual")terminate called after throwing an instance of 'PSERROR_System_VmodeFailed'what(): System_VmodeFailedAborted (core dumped)Please, let me know if I am missing anything else worth doing. Thank you very much for this great game!
  3. The main reason is that I want to use an old laptop as thin client. It is frustrating to run 0ad in this laptop. Using x2go I am able to use this laptop as terminal of the serverA, including sound: office tasks, playing games, videos, and so on. The error appears in both directions: A -> B, and A <- B
  4. Hi, The configuration is: - serverA (thick client) intel 8 cores, 1600 MHz, 16 gb RAM, NVIDIA Corporation GT216 [GeForce GT 220] - computerB (thin client). AMD 3 cores 800 MHz, 8 gb RAM, Radeon HD 4350/4550 In both computers 0ad runs smoothly. The problem is that graphics are missing when it runs over ssh or other remote desktop servers like vnc or x2go. It only works when using x11vnc that displays corresponding to a physical monitor. And that is very strange! For instance, if I use x2go to view the remote desktop and run 0ad in a terminal, I obtain the following error: WARNING: Failed to set the video mode to fullscreen for the chosen resolution 1440x850:24 ("Couldn't find matching GLX visual"), falling back to windowed modeERROR: SetVideoMode failed: 1024x768:24 0 ("Couldn't find matching GLX visual")WARNING: Failed to set the video mode to fullscreen for the chosen resolution 1440x850:24 ("Couldn't find matching GLX visual"), falling back to windowed modeERROR: SetVideoMode failed: 1024x768:24 0 ("Couldn't find matching GLX visual")terminate called after throwing an instance of 'PSERROR_System_VmodeFailed' what(): System_VmodeFailedAborted (core dumped)As I am not an expert in GLX ecosystem, I am not sure if this problem is due to a silly mistaken or not. With other games (e.g. alien-arena, glxgears,nexuiz) remote desktop works fine. Thank you for your feedback!
  5. 0ad version XVII runs flashy in serverA (Lubuntu 14.04). I want to play it from another computer B (lubuntu 14.04). When sitting in computer B, I connect to serverA via Secure Shell (ssh) with X11 Forwarding option: computerB:~$ ssh -X serverA 0adIt runs very slow. Even worse: Graphics are missing! Is this problem reproducible? Is there any way I can play 0ad using serverA from another computer? Thank you!
