Hi, I've had the exact same problem last week with ParaView git/master on Linux x86_64 with Mesa 7.8.2, having applied the patch you mentioned to the Mesa 7.8.2 sources. (It's also the only patch present in the Mesa git master for that particular bug, https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10966.) Whenever I tried to save an animation from the ParaView client (builtin mode), ParaView still crashed. I tried to avoid that by removing a duplicate call of OSMesaMakeCurrent() from the VTK sources by means of
> diff --git a/Rendering/vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow.cxx > b/Rendering/vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow.cxx > index 5a87aae..493a3fb 100644 > --- a/Rendering/vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow.cxx > +++ b/Rendering/vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow.cxx > @@ -828,7 +828,6 @@ void vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow::CreateOffScreenWindow(int > width, int height) > { > this->Internal->OffScreenContextId = OSMesaCreateContext(GL_RGBA, > NULL); > } > - this->MakeCurrent(); > } > else > #endif but that turned out to be not sufficient, OSMesaMakeCurrent() is still called multiple times when ParaView git/master is trying to save an animation. I reverted to Mesa 7.5.2 to resolve the issue.
