To confirm, you are running ChimeraX on a Ubuntu Linux server and remotely displaying to a Mac. Unfortunately, we don't officially support running ChimeraX remotely, it frequently fails as you have discovered.

But unofficially, I'd recommend installing the virtualgl package on the remote Ubuntu server, and run "vglrun chimerax" instead of "chimerax". VirtualGL works best if there is a 3D graphics card in the Linux server, along with the corresponding graphics drivers, since it converts the 3D graphics to a 2D image on the remote server. And it needs a X11 display server to be running on the Ubuntu server. So it's a bit of a pain to setup, but when it works, it works great.
