Bug Description

I'm new to raspberry and trying to run stellarium and celestia. Both fail to start.
Celestia reports: (celestia: 3504): GdkGLExt: WARNING **: Window system doesn't support OpenGL.
Before crashing, stellarium reports: This system does not support OpenGL.
Both run fine when launched from another machine, using ssh
Maybe I'm doing something wrong ?
Thanks !

Well. This is clearly not a bug, but instead a question. The problem is (or was) the lacking support for OpenGL. Which Raspberry model and which Raspbian version was it? Or is this relevant anymore?

I successfully installed and ran stellarium in a fresly installed Raspbian Buster in a Pi 3B. No package for celestia was available.

Should someone close this bug?
