dear experts,
I am trying to compile Paraview 5.2 with gcc 4.8 + Qt 4.8 + VTK 5.10 +
Python 2.7 (available with Miniconda) on a CentOS 7 machine.

it compiles well, but I fail to run the Paraview; Paraview starts, but when
I try to open a file, I get:

ERROR: In
/root/ParaView-v5.2.0/VTK/Rendering/OpenGL2/vtkOpenGLRenderWindow.cxx, line
641
vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow (0x1b85d60): GL version 2.1 with the gpu_shader4
extension is not supported by your graphics driver but is required for the
new OpenGL rendering backend. Please update your OpenGL driver. If you are
using Mesa please make sure you have version 10.6.5 or later and make sure
your driver in Mesa supports OpenGL 3.2.

could some expert either point me to some standard approach, I need to use,
or point me to the relevant cmake flags to set?
thanks for your valuable help
