[Paraview] Rendering Backend OpenGL2 & PV 5.2.0-RC4 & SurfaceLic --> Problem...

[Andy Smith]

Chuck and Ken,

I really appreciate you both following up with me.  I will have some time
this week to update my osmesa builds for a proper 4.4.0 vs 5.2.0 comparison
and I will try out the EGL option; I honestly forgot that it was available.

Hopefully I will have more to report back soon.

Thanks,
Andy
