You must use vncserver.glx and not vncserver on the remote linux box. vncserer.glx is a special version I have setup on Martinos Linux machines.
Old versions of APple X11 do not have GLX support.

Hi,
I'm using X11 on my Mac OS X to remotely access our Linux machine. When I try and open Tkmedit I get the following error:
freeglut (/usr/local/freesurfer/stable/bin/tksurfer.bin): OpenGL GLX extension not supported by display 'localhost:10.0'
I've tried using Chicken of the VNC and VNCViewer to remedy this but I still have the same problems.
Does anyone know what I should do to fix this?
Thanks, Lauren
