I'm not running these apps remotely, but locally. The ati DRI driver
has consistently crashed my box during the last 4-5 years, so I'm using
it only when really needed. I'll have to raise this issue to X.org,
since I never had much feedback from GATOS when I mentionned this
problem.
As a sidenote, I was not aware that we had AIGLX available in stock
Debian - will have a look at that some day :)
