[Paraview] [EXTERNAL] Re: Paraview Crash

[Scott, W Alan]

Daniel,
Your issue is that ParaView is trying to pick up OpenGL from the system.  The system version is still Mesa / OpenGL 2.1.  I believe you have three options to move forward.  Either do your vis on a computer that has a newer version of OpenGL (such as a Windows computer), rebuild and install system wide a newer version of Mesa (it needs to support OpenGL 3.2), or third you can fall back to ParaView 4.4.0 (available on the Kitware website).  The primary difference between ParaView 4.* and 5.* is that 5 requires a newer (but still old) version of OpenGL.

Hello my friends,

I need to use Paraview to view results in VTK generated by LIGGHTS(r)Public.
Can anyone send materials of what filters should I

I need Paraview to view some vtk files generated by the finite element solver LIGGGTHS.
I receive a problem when I try to execute the binary of ParaView-5.0.1-Qt4-OpenGL2-MPI-Linux-64bit.
This is my error:

I click "OK" and "RENDER VIEW". After this Paraview crash.
This is the error in console.

I thought that was mesa driver. I have compiled the newest mesa drivers and the problem persist.
Can anyone help with this problem?

My system is a Debian 8.4.0 amd64 in a HP g42-330BR notebook.
Please, tell what additional info I need to inform.
Thank you.
