Hi Lucy,
I'm pretty certain that we are doing what you want to do. We are building OSMesa 7.5 from source as we have had various problems with system supplied mesa versions...

Hi,

I’ve recently installed Paraview3.6.1 with OSMesa 7.4.4 on a linux based workstation (64bit). However, when running python scripts to set up and output jpg (or png) files using pvbatch with the --use- offscreen-rendering flag, the scripts run perfectly with no error, however the output picture is garbled. I’ve tried a fresh install of both Paraview and OSMesa to double check my configuration and the compilation runs through fine with no errors. I’m trying to use the OSMesa libraries installed in a shared location across a network instead of on my local machine – could this be the source of the problem? The python scripts only use Paraview as serial (i.e no parallel server) and output the pictures fine if the --use-offscreen- rendering flag is not used (and the OpenGL visualisation window opens).

Any help with this would be great as I’m pretty stumped.

Cheers,

Lucy
