to watch out for is the MPI and since vtkParseOGLExt and vtkWrapPython etc don’t touch that, you ought to be ok compiling
<br>
_<i>as if</i>_ you were going to run on the host node. If you use the MPI wrappers (I don’t), then all will be taken care of.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

I’d need to setup mesa which may take a while, so maybe I won’t....)<u></u><u></u></span></p>
