When I try to change a protein to ribbon format, the protein disappears and only small molecules are left. When I go to the terminal window, I find lots of errors there. How do I prevent this? I am displaying Maestro remotely on Windows XP using NXClient.

You could try launching Maestro with the -SGL option, which might handle the rendering problems.

Please check the number of frames per second (FPS) you are getting. If you are getting less than ~3,000 FPS, your network is probably not adequate for remote Maestro display. You can use the glxgears program on your Linux machine to get this information.

An alternative method of remote display is to use the Hummingbird Exceed X server with the Exceed 3D module and connect via ssh with -X forwarding.

Finally, you could consider installing Maestro locally on your Windows XP machine and configuring it for remote job submission to your cluster/server.
