Building on your idea, what about a "recommended" OS Mesa version
for each VTK release? One idea might be to use the newest OS Mesa
driver available at the time of the previous VTK release. that way
there would be one full VTK release cycle of dashboard coverage.
If major issues were uncovered or VTK released quickly i think it
would be fine to hold the mesa versions back for a cycle. I know
this is more work maintaining the dashboard systems but it would
be beneficial to have that coverage and testing for PV (and other
hpc vis tools) which often rely on OS Mesa when running on hpc
systems.<br>

not a bad idea, it's old but at least it's still available on
Mesa's ftp server ;-)<br>

Over the past couple of days I've been incrementally testing older
OS Mesa drivers. The test failures start pre 8.0.5. It looks to me
like a genuine Mesa bug. Rather than introduce a kludge to make it
work I plan to disable FBO's with OS Mesa and Mesa < 8.0.5.<br>

<br>
I'm investigating a couple test failures(below) on <a
moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://p90n03.pbm.ihost.com" target="_blank">p90n03.pbm.ihost.com</a>
build AIX00F614-xlC.<br>

That system uses a relatively old OS Mesa from Mesa
release, 7.0.4 from 2008 (glGetString output below). These
tests hadn't been running before as FBO support was
unconditionally disabled by VTK with OS Mesa. The tests
pass with newer OS Mesa(9.1.3 and git) <br>
<br>
from test output it looks like it might be solvable. I
thought I'd download 7.0.4 to see if I could reproduce
the errors and find a solution but Mesa's download site
only goes back as far as 7.5.1. Before I go further I'd
like to ask if it wouldn't make sense to have a floor on
Mesa version for VTK or for VTK's dashboard systems? I'm
not sure if it's really worth coding to the quirks in such
an old version of mesa.<br>
