compositing is 'on' and slide the threshold to 0MB, and I think you'll be
pleasantly surprised at the image delivery performance you get (some folks don't

<P><FONT size=2>You need to run a different version of VNC. One that
supports GLX, which<BR>is really OpenGL. Or, you could run paraview
in client server mode with<BR>the server running on the SGI, and the client
running on Windows.<BR><BR>-Bill<BR><BR><BR>At 08:52 PM 8/31/2005, Renato N.
