Hello all,<BR>
<BR>
I am in the process of setting up a new dashboard on a machine with an ATI graphics card. The results of a nightly dashboard submission are here:  <A HREF="http://open.cdash.org/viewTest.php?onlyfailed&buildid=3109741">http://open.cdash.org/viewTest.php?onlyfailed&buildid=3109741</A> . There are 28 failing tests. Marcus agrees that we can add a new baseline for the TestLinePlotColors test. What about the other tests? Are they failing because of graphics card issues? Should they be suppressed? Or are there changes in VTK code required? <BR>
<BR>
Almost half of the tests are failing because the vtkMPIController is leaking. With George's help, we were able to ascertain that MPI is indeed starting two different test processes(thats why two output messages) but does not account for the two processes and exits with an error. The question is, whether it is valid to assume that there is an issue with the VTK MPI test code or is there a flag/setting in CMake that needs to be changed? <BR>
