Yes, you will need OpenCL, but it more complicated than this: for some
reason, OpenCL is deactivated in Blender on Linux. There is no way to find
out why, there are threads with like 18237823 posts where I could not
gather what the status now is.

Yes, just tried that. That does render a cube.

I'm not familiar with shadowing or what that means. Do you mean running
x2godesktopsharing on the physical display on the server and then
connecting to it via X2goclient?
I was not even aware that x2godesktopsharing worked already, just tried
that out. Is there a way to enable desktop sharing for every session
automatically?

I will do these in the next days. I thought it might be cool to be able to
show somebody what the whole process looks like, visually demonstrate what
X2go can do.
 As they say in German: Ein Bild sagt mehr als tausend Worte. A Picture is
speaks more than a thousand words. But well, video has more than a thousand
words per frame, so 24 fps, that would be more than 24k words per second ;-)
I guess applying cold math to a artistic proverb might not work.

I will log in and stay online 24/7, I think that should do the trick.

 Thanks,
