Problem with X forwarding GL/Glut app

I am experiencing the same problem described here:
http://lists.apple.com/archives/X11-users/2010/Jan/msg00028.html
when I try to remotely run an application using X forwarding via SSH.

The remote side (running the application) is a Ubuntu 11.04 machine. Some applications
run without problems (glxgears for example), but some quit immediately :

freeglut (./glapp):  ERROR:  Internal error <FBConfig with necessary capabilities not found> in function fgOpenWindow
X Error of failed request:  BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)
 Major opcode of failed request:  4 (X_DestroyWindow)
 Resource id in failed request:  0x0
 Serial number of failed request:  25
 Current serial number in output stream:  28

What confuses me is where to look for the cause of this problem: is it my macbook or the remote machine?

The following is the output of glxinfo (note that direct rendering is automatically disabled):

name of display: localhost:10.0
Xlib:  extension "NV-GLX" missing on display "localhost:10.0".
