[Bug 1580701] [NEW] MatLab won't start in Horizon noVNC

 

Public bug reported:

MatLab 2016a desktop won't start using Horizon's noVNC console. It hangs
at the splash screen.

Using RDP, VNC, X Forwarding, and noVNC (using novnc_server and tigervnc
on the VM), it opens properly.

To get it to open properly in Horizon's noVNC console, we have to add
the "nomodeset" flag in grub for the VM. This has the side-effect of
making the glxgears background transparent -- I don't know what other
side-effects it will have with other programs.

RHEL7.2, x84_64, OpenStack Liberty
