Nvidia GPU functioning but not used by OpenGL

Graphics / Linux Linux
1

I have purchased a server with RTX 6000 and installed Nvidia Driver. I am using SSH to the server and using GUI apps via X11, everything works properly. However, the command “nvidia-settings” shows " ERROR: Unable to load info from any available system". And the OpenGL seems still using the Intel one. I though it was bacuase the GPU was not set as primary one, after reading many posts on the internet, I made changes under /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d

ls
10-nvidia-prime.conf  nvidia.conf  nvidia-drm-outputclass.conf
These files are set to content :
--------------------------------------------------------------------
# This xorg.conf.d configuration snippet configures the X server to
# automatically load the nvidia X driver when it detects a device driven by the
# nvidia-drm.ko kernel module.  Please note that this only works on Linux kernels
# version 3.9 or higher with CONFIG_DRM enabled, and only if the nvidia-drm.ko
# kernel module is loaded before the X server is started.

Section "OutputClass"
    Identifier     "nvidia"
    MatchDriver    "nvidia-drm"
    Driver         "nvidia"
    Option         "PrimaryGPU" "yes"
EndSection

This did not work, after reboot, the OpenGL still not showing Nvidia
