ssh -X gives an error

Problem is I have installed Virtual Nanolab software. It works fine on local machine but when I tried ssh -Y forward the software. I get error

libGL error: No matching fbConfigs or visuals found
libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast
Unrecognized OpenGL version
Unrecognized OpenGL version

with white small box

I am using MacBook.

xclock or other gnome-software-center app works fine on ssh -Y in MacBook.
