[R] rgl does not plot

I have installed package rgl without any problems. I can load the library,
issue commands from console without any errors showing up, however I can't
get anything plotted. Example session:

> library(rgl)
> plot3d(rnorm(100), rnorm(100), rnorm(100))
> rgl.quit()
> library(rgl)
> .check3d()
glX
 1
> plot3d(rnorm(100), rnorm(100), rnorm(100))
> > open3d()
glX
 2
> plot3d(rnorm(100), rnorm(100), rnorm(100))
> rgl.quit()

.check3d() and open3d() open a small window ~8x8 cm, copying desktop
background under it, which stays there when the window is moved. plot3d()
does not do anything. rgl.quit() closes the windows, as expected.

I am running Fedora 24 Scientific, NVIDIA video card with NVIDIA
proprietory driver that supports GLX. Any idea where to look for a solution?
