I keep getting the same behaviour - when saving in any format except 
pdf, a popup window appears with bunch of:

X Error: GLXBadContext 155
   Extension:    144 (Uknown extension)
   Minor opcode: 5 (Unknown request)
   Resource id:  0x4c01ff3

The file is saved, but is all black.

I use Gentoo, with Intel I810 graphics, paraview 3.2.1 official binary, 
xorg-x11-7.2.

Is this only Intel graphics related? Has anyone found a solution?
