This blog [1] describes how I built modern OSMesa. You can also use the ParaView Superbuild's build script for clues on how Mesa is built.

[Paraview] paraview.5.1.renderingbackend.opengl on server and paraview.5.1.renderingbackend.opengl2 on client
Hi John, It is written in the code that you can't have a client in OpenGL and a server in OpenGL2 on the server. But you can have a pvserver with mesa with backend opengl2. When you build ParaView with Mesa, you have to choose a backend. This means that you must build 2 times ParaView for Mesa, one for each backend. When running paraview (client), you have to choose the good pvserver (same backend than the client). Thus the hand shake strings should be the same.

[Paraview] paraview.5.1.renderingbackend.opengl on server and paraview.5.1.renderingbackend.opengl2 on client
I have built a ParaView on a parallel machine with: 1) intel/16.0.32) openmpi/1.6.5 3) cmake/3.5.2 And "Classic OSMesa” Mesa-9.2.5 configured with instructions at: http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView/ParaView_And_Mesa_3D#Installing_Classic_OSMesa My problem is a handshake issue and client server connection time I suspect the hand shake strings are the problem as the server sting is: ParaView handshake strings are different on the two connecting processes (Current value: paraview.5.1.renderingbackend.opengl). And the client string is: StartFragmentParaView handshake strings are different on the two connecting processes (Current value: paraview.5.1.renderingbackend.opengl2). Is it true that I can’t use the classic rendering (old GL) on the backend with a GL 2 on the client? Is there a workaround or do I have to figure out how to build a more modern OS Mesa (which might just be a copy/paste from the aforementioned website…)?
