This is perhaps an opengl issue, but not sure so posting here. The issue goes like this, I run Vbox on another computer and the VM's are headless. Occasionally, I'll start the VirtualBox GUI client remotely (ssh -Y) to manage settings, etc. The remote system also used an Nvidia card like my desktop.
