Have you solved the issue?

@ManyuChang
You can use "nomachine" as the desktop viewer

You can use the glxinfo command line tool to check which versions of the GLX API are available for your server and client machines. You must ensure that both endpoints support GLX >= 1.3. Especially, if you use the free version of Xming as your X-Server on Windows, you will never get more than GLX 1.2. You can try to replace it with VCXSRV, also free and open-source, but updated for GLX 1.4.
