When I try running KiCad over ssh, I get a different error:
$ kicad

Does this happen right when you start Kicad or a little later, like when starting an actual editor?
It happens as soon as I try to open an editor. I can open the main KiCad window without issues, but if I then try to open a schematic or pcb, it gets the DRI errors.

My solution has been to connect to the hosting machine via VNC.? That
can be a little tricky to set up, but it works very well.
Yeah, we are using this solution too ATM. But it is far from ideal, because the desktop size is fixed and the whole solution is slow compared to X-forwarding. But it works for now.
