Dear all,

I know that I cannot go for any performance record with this setup, but
having both systems available without reboot has advantages if it is
about testing some new development. WOULD have - if it fully worked! So
far it looks like I am "almost there" - however not knowing whether the
last 10 meters will be feasible at all...

This is my setup:

Main system: Opensuse Linux "Leap" 42.3, with Paraview reporting the
following in the About dialog:
OpenGL Vendor: Intel Open Source Technology Center
OpenGL Version: 3.3 (Core Profile) Mesa 17.0.5
OpenGL Renderer: Mesa DRI Intel(R) Ivybridge Mobile

On this system Paraview (latest version, self compiled) runs just fine.

Guest system inside VMWare Player version 14: Windows 10, with Paraview
reporting the following:
OpenGL Vendor: VMware, Inc.
OpenGL Version: 3.3 (Core Profile) Mesa 11.2.0 (git-b9d3786)
OpenGL Renderer: Gallium 0.4 on SVGA3D; build: RELEASE; LLVM;

Here Paraview immediately complains on startup, reporting the following
in the message output dialog: see below.

For me the version numbers look ok (OpenGL 3.3 is more than 3.2, and
Mesa 11.2.0 is more than 10.6.5), but there is some "fineprint" about
shader capabilities that are going a bit above my understanding...

Anybody able to help with this?

Any possibility to "cheat" somehow? Note that I am certainly not going
to render billions of data in this configuration!

Or should I abandon this tricky setup altogether?

Thanks and regards,
Cornelis

Here the error output from the Windows Paraview inside the VMWare
virtual machine:
