Hi Gerard, I wrote that document, sorry for leaving out the instance type. I just had a look at the AWS console, and it appears the instance type I was setting up was a "g2.2xlarge". Your assumption that the document only applies to gpu instances is correct, and although it is theoretically possible to set up an instance to render with osmesa, I haven't done that specifically on an EC2 instance. I don't have any experience with the t1.micro instance type, but I did author another paraview web document regarding TurboVNC and VirtualGL, located here<http://www.paraview.org/ParaView3/Doc/Nightly/www/js-doc/index.html#!/guide/virtualgl_turbovnc_howto>, which you have maybe already seen. Those instructions require that the machine can run an X server, and I don't know if that's true for the t1.micro instance type.
