    <div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi,<br>
      <br>
      haven't read the entire thread, but if you want remote
      visualization and HAVE GPUs, why don't you use VirtualGL? Then you
      would start it with "vglrun paraview", and ParaView would get a
      GPU buffer for direct rendering. It is very easy to setup, just
      google for VirtualGL, and if something does not work, email me...<br>
      <br>
      Cheers...<br>
