            Hi All,<br>
            <br>
            VTK 6.1 will take full advantage of OpenGL features in
            OSMesa. In the past this hadn't been the case, a number of
            key algorithms or classes that algorithms depended on were
            explicitly disabled when OSMesa was detected. I've been
            investigating use of the new 9.2.2 Mesa release in which
            OSMesa can take advantage of the VMWare's Gallium llvmpipe
            back-end. The advantages of this back-end over the classic
            OSMesa &nbsp;back-end are better OpenGL extension support,
            threading, and use of LLVM/clang for shader compilation. The
            llvmpipe backend is quite a bit faster on shader heavy
            algorithms and supports Surface LIC while the classic
            back-end does not. &nbsp;In the recent Mesa 9.2.2 release it
            finally works flawlessly with pvbatch.<br>
            <br>
            The Mesa 9.2.2 release configured with the Gallium llvmpipe
            OSMesa state tracker should be the recommended Mesa release
            for off-screen rendering in VTK and ParaView and I've
            updated the wiki with build instructions and some rendering
            benchmarks.<br>

            I've left a link to the old page, if there are no objections
            I'd like to remove it.<br>
            <br>
            I've set up ParaView and VTK dashboards for the new 9.2.2
            Mesa release<br>
