Hi @Anonymous and welcome to the community!

There's a few steps that may help fix this, however they may or may not work for Linux.

    1. Use a different server/viewer RealVNC will work

    2. Set viewport renderer to be DirectX not OpenGL

    3. Set the following Environment Variables either through a system variable or through the maya.env file found in the preferences folder:

        MAYA_CM_DISABLE_ERROR_POPUPS=1         MAYA_COLOR_MGT_NO_LOGGING=1

Let me know if these help at all!
