[Paraview] pvbatch (3.8.0) rendering through OSmesa does not work on multiple nodes

2010-09-16 Thread Van Mierlo K.

We've stumbled upon the same issue. The most recent versions of OSMesa crash when making multiple calls to MakeCurrent as they will attempt to create a new render buffer each time. As Sven mentioned, it has been reported to the Mesa Community. You can view our own findings related to this issue in

Hello, If you want to use LIC, remember that the LIC plugin is not loaded by default, at least with PV 3.8.0. When starting Paraview, choose in the menu Tools-Manage plugins. That opens a new window, and the right panel Local plugins should show all available plugins in your install. Select

Hi, When responding please also respond to the mailing list to share with everyone. There are no current plans to release installers that include Mpich2 or HP-mpi. You'll have to build paraview yourself in order to use them. Andy On Thu, Sep 16, 2010 at 2:17 AM, Lars-Peter Svanberg
