How do I get the X thing to display on a remote machine, when I am using openmesa???
First, my configuration: a 2-machine "cluster" with a total of 3 quad-cores, running ubuntu natty narwhal. head node IP:a.b.c.d (all 64-bit machines) My remote machine: win-xp laptop with IP add: a.b.e.f (32-bit machine) MPICH1 up and running. I cannot use MPICH2 since the tomographic reconstruction package that I have only works under MPICH1. The recon works fine and dandy within the cluster (so MPI is running, the cluster machines are happy with each other, and I can get in with my remote machine from home and chat with them nice-and-easy). Now, the paraview bit: I downloaded paraview source and did a manual install as per paraview.org notes to allow for MPI. I included OpenMesa in the configuration and the paraview installed fine. I can start up pvserver using mpi and start up paraview on the head node and that works. However, my problem is when I am trying to use my laptop in conjunction with the cluster. I have a win32 binary installation of paraview on my laptop. Well I start up the server on the cluster using: mpirun -np 4 pvserver --use-offscreen-rendering and it says waiting for client and Connection URL: cs://localhost:11111 I start up the laptop paraview and ask it to use the server at a.b.c.d. The server on the cluster gives an error message: ERROR: In <dirpath>/vtkSocketCommunicator.cxx, line 823 vtkSocketCommunicator (0x185ecd0): Tag mismatch: got 8843, expecting 99991. It is weird that I downloaded paraview3.10.1 for both win32 and linux x86-64, but the paraview version that opens up on my linux box says it is 3.11.1 I am wondering if this is a problem? I got both softwares from http://www.paraview.org/paraview/resources/software.html#latest.... I can provide more details on what all I have tried (basically all the stuff that google has thrown up from various paraview-related websites) w/o any luck. Vinay
