Err, I'm not sure where the X forwarding suddenly comes from, or why you 
would want to use it in ParaView client-server mode? I'm simply running 
the client locally on my workstation and one or more server processes on 
our render cluster. This has always worked for me with earlier versions 
of ParaView, but something seems to have changed. It could be the newer 
NVidia driver we use since a few weeks, but like I said, I don't see 
issues with any other OpenGL application.

Other than the EGL stuff in 5.0 is there something different in the way ParaView is trying to initialize OpenGL/GLX that could cause the above error?
