Ulrich just replied to me off-list - I'm assuming by accident, as it was
sent from his smartphone.
His statement was that you shouldn't expect GLX 1.3 support in the
NX-libraries in the near future. :-(

Well, we do have a workaround for GLX support.

http://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/wiki:development:glx-xlib-workaround?s[]=glx

But:

1. It requires putting the environment variable in a /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ script . These scripts get launched before the desktop environment is started.

This is very easy shell scripting.

Note that non-debian-derived distros often use other paths. Fedora/RHEL-derived distros use /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/ .

2. The build instructions likely vary from distro to distro, and release to release.

3. I have not tested it with entire desktop environments. GNOME3 may have a check that will prevent it from working, even if it is otherwise capable of working.
