Segmentation fault when running joint_monkey.py on a remote Ubuntu Server

Hi there,
I have a remote Server with Ubuntu22.04 and NVIDIA Gefroce RTX 4090. I connect to the server through ssh in the Vscode or MobaXterm. When I run python joint_monkey.py, it always turn to Segmentation Fault, which confused me for a long time. I noticed some issues that there might be some problem while using a headless server, but my server is with a monitor. When I try to set the graphics_device_id to -1, I will get another error: Failed to create viewer.
Besides, I can run the RL examples succesfully with the headless mode. For example, python train.py task=Ant headless=True. It’s always OK. Now I wonder whether there is something I can do to get the display window. I have seen that someone succeed but I don’t know what I should do now. Thank you for any help!

Best wishes,
Peter
