[Paraview] Background in 3D mode

In fact :( I already tried tiled display but the backgroup is not 
correctly split. And yes, I am asking for stereoscopic mode and Cristal 
Eyes active stereo.

  Do you know if this feature is going to be supported in a next release 
of ParaView ?

I did not understand the command "/bin/uname (and xterm -r "uname -a" 
-hold)". Do you mean I have to run
 > mpirun -np 8 -machinefile 
/opt/software/ParaView/PVscripts/server_machinefile.txt 
/opt/software/ParaView/ParaView-5.0.0-bin/bin/pvserver -rc 
--client-host=mire-pc /opt/software/ParaView/PVresources/wall_config.pvx 
/bin/uname ???

Regards,

Cindy
