<div dir="ltr">Scott, <div><br></div><div>It may be that I could be bettering how I use ParaView. What I am doing is basically extracting frames as PNGs from a number of timesteps so I can perform some post processing on said frames on the same node. The product I am creating is a time machine - like these here. <a href="http://timemachine.cmucreatelab.org/wiki/Main_Page">http://timemachine.cmucreatelab.org/wiki/Main_Page</a> - I am basically just taking advantage of the rendering capabilities of ParaView to get my hd images :) The ending product just let's me through it on a server somewhere that is a pretty light load to share. But ParaView Web looks promising too, I might have to do some comparisons</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">Thanks!</div><div class="gmail_extra">Noah</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Jun 10, 2015 at 4:07 PM, Scott Wittenburg <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:scott.wittenburg@kitware.com" target="_blank">scott.wittenburg@kitware.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Hi Noah,<div><br></div><div> Since you were setting up on an EC2 instance, I was imagining that you would be running pvserver over there and connecting to it with the client running on your desktop.

I was thinking that with GPU instances it was something small and seeing the mesa libraries threw me off but I followed the steps below and was able to get my paraview referencing the x server. Thanks alot! Just as an FYI for those that are novices like me, I had to do an additional step that may be intuitive for most that are familiar with x server but I needed to run vncserver and then export my DISPLAY to the master.1. When I try to just run X without doing this with it pointed to the 0.0 it will give me an error when I try and call glxinfo. After running vncserver and switching it to the master.1, I am able to run x and paraview tools :)</div><span><font color="#888888"><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">Noah</div></font></span><div><div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Jun 10, 2015 at 2:40 PM, Scott Wittenburg <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:scott.wittenburg@kitware.com" target="_blank">scott.wittenburg@kitware.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">I am responding to the paraview users list so other folks can benefit from the discussion...<br><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Jun 10, 2015 at 2:11 PM, Vishnubharathi T <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:vishnu2bharathi@gmail.com" target="_blank">vishnu2bharathi@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204);border-left-style:solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div style="font-size:12.8000001907349px">Dear Scott Wittenburg,</div><div style="font-size:12.8000001907349px">I am learning Paraview by myself.
