[THIN] Re: Running an OpenGL app on CPS 4

Spotted this whilst trawling for something completely different.

Tulsa, Oklahoma Feb. 21, 2006 - A new plug-in is now available which will 
dramatically improve the performance of all 3D OpenGL based applications run on 
Citrix Windows servers. 

$299 per user.

      We are going to be running some usability tests for a home-grown data 
      analysis application that uses OpenGL for display. We'll be testing on
      Windows 2003 / CPS 4 on IBM HS20 blades. I think it's going to feel more
      like a GIS-type application than a CAD or rendering application, if that 
      categorization helps at all.

      Talking with developers, they warned me that they sometimes have
      problems with the app on "weird" graphics hardware, but that turning off
      hardware acceleration usually solves the problem. If the app can work 
      without any accceleration, I think that holds promise for this app
      actually being usable on a Citrix server.

      What advice does anyone have about running OpenGL apps via Citrix?
