NVIDIA Xorg VirtualGL Docker Images

Render OpenGL to NVIDIA headless Xorg inside a Docker container and forward to your remote X server using VirtualGL

Requirements

• Linux machine with NVIDIA GPU and drivers
• Docker
• nvidia-docker
• VirtualGL client
• X server on client machine

Build

$ docker build -t nvidia-xorg-virtualgl-docker .

Run

$ ./run.sh YOUR-DOCKER-ARGS nvidia-xorg-virtualgl-docker vglrun YOUR-GUI-APP

This will launch an internal Xorg server at headless display :0 where VirtualGL renders the OpenGL content and forwards already rendered OpenGL content to remote X server connected via VirtualGL's vglconnect SSH tunnel.
