virtualgl

VirtualGL is an open-source software package that allows 3D Unix and Linux applications to be rendered on a server's powerful GPU and viewed on a remote thin client. It intercepts OpenGL commands, performs hardware acceleration on the server side, and streams the rendered images to the client device. (Summary from the program web page.)

Note

This module works only on computational nodes, which permit an access to /dev/dri/renderX and /dev/dri/cardX devices. Currently, this is managed on the sokar cluster via batch jobs requesting GPUs.
