Thank you all for the insights.<BR>
I managed to reduce the number of failing tests simply by switching to the open source display driver from xserver-xorg-video-ati. While looking into the MPI issue, I found that I had two different versions (openmpi and mpich2) installed on the machine. Removing mpich2 got rid of the failing tests as well. There are still some image mismatch failures (<A HREF="http://open.cdash.org/viewTest.php?onlyfailed&buildid=3114530)">http://open.cdash.org/viewTest.php?onlyfailed&buildid=3114530)</A> that need to be looked into.<BR>
<BR>
Thank you again.<BR>

Volume rendering has issues on ATI. I can help to fix those ones (one way or another). I can sync up with you on Monday.

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>
