[Paraview-developers] vglrun paraview non working over vnc

[Dan Lipsa]

Some more info about my environment:

server glx vendor string: VirtualGL
server glx version string: 1.4
OpenGL vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation
OpenGL renderer string: Quadro K2000/PCIe/SSE2
OpenGL core profile version string: 4.5.0 NVIDIA 361.42

I also confirmed that the ParaView I tried was compiled with OpenGL2.
