This is likely the cause because the nVidia driver installs its own libGL version.

This is fine as long you only ever use the machine locally, but fails badly in
use cases such as X2Go.

Typically it might be possible to ignore the directory in which the package
installs this special libGL version and thus making sure that the MESA-gl
version is being used. Not a trivial task to do from X2Go's viewpoint, since the
libGL directory is hardcoded within the system's ld.so.conf file.
