Hello,
I am encountering an issue when trying to launch NVIDIA Isaac Sim 4.2.0 via remote access. However, when running it locally without remote control, the issue does not occur. The error message appears as follows:

Environment:

  • Ubuntu 22.04
  • NVIDIA Omniverse Isaac Sim 4.2.0
  • ROS2 Humble
  • NVIDIA driver and CUDA installed properly

Command used to launch:

./isaac-sim.sh

Error log (excerpt):

X Error of failed request: GLXBadFBConfig
Major opcode of failed request: 150 (GLX)
Minor opcode of failed request: 0 ()
Serial number of failed request: 225
Current serial number in output stream: 225

This issue only happens when I try to run Isaac Sim via remote access. When running it locally, there are no problems.

I would appreciate any guidance on the possible causes and solutions for this issue.
Could this be related to OpenGL, Vulkan, or remote desktop configurations?

Please let me know if there are any additional details I should check.
Thank you in advance for your help!

Please check if Isaac Sim Compatibility Checker can't run error：GLXBadFBConfig is helpful.

Additionally, you may want to run it as a headless native application.
