[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #44823] Segfault when using HD Graphics 6000 on Fedora 21

[Michael Godfrey]

Follow-up Comment #19, bug #44823 (project octave):

John, This is a long and complex set of issues. OpenGL, X11, and
other software are involved. And, I just discovered that Fedora 24
behaves differently from 23. An obvious difference is that ssh'ing
from Fedora 24 to 23 no longer runs matlab. matlab -nodesktop
just hangs. Under 23 to 23 to ran OK.

Running from Mac OS to Fedora 23 works, with the following
complaints:
++
address@hidden ~]$ matlab -nodesktop
MATLAB is selecting SOFTWARE OPENGL rendering.

So, the problem of useful use of Octave through ssh/X11 remote
access seems to be both challenging and a moving target.

I will try to learn more, but am very pressed for time right now.
