[Paraview] RedHat6/mesa/Paraview5.3 problem

[Patrick Begou]

I've not completly solved our migration from Paraview 4.1 to paraview 5.3...

On a RedHat 6 server, with AMD firepro W7000 GPU I've compiled successfully 
paraview. But launching the application returns:
vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow (0x2671a80): 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.

This server uses mesa-libGL-11.0.7-4.el6.x86_64 (from ELrepo) wich is > 10.6.5 
(requested for paraview in this message) but a glxinfo returns:
name of display: :1
display: :1  screen: 0
direct rendering: Yes
....
OpenGL vendor string: VMware, Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: Gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe (LLVM 3.6, 256 bits)
OpenGL version string: 2.1 Mesa 11.0.7
OpenGL shading language version string: 1.30
...

I've checked with ldd that the loaded openGL library is the good one:
bash-4.1$ ldd $(which glxinfo)
.....
         libGLU.so.1 => /usr/lib64/libGLU.so.1 (0x00007f33b79e9000)
         libGL.so.1 => /usr/lib64/libGL.so.1 (0x0000003bb5600000)
....
bash-4.1$ rpm -qf /usr/lib64/libGL.so.1
mesa-libGL-11.0.7-4.el6.x86_64

I'm launching paraview via vncviewer on this node.

So which minimal mesa version is required for paraview 5.3 ?

Thanks

Patrick
