Dear Community,


I've recently upgraded to ParaView 5.4.1 since ParaView 5.0.0 stopped working on my workstation. Therefore, I've downloaded and unpacked ParaView-5.4.1-Qt5-OpenGL2-MPI-Linux-64bit.tar.gz, however, receive the following error message upon execution:


Warning: In /home/buildslave/dashboards/buildbot/paraview-pvbinsdash-linux-shared-release_superbuild/build/superbuild/paraview/src/VTK/Rendering/OpenGL2/vtkOpenGLRenderWindow.cxx, line 838
vtkGenericOpenGLRenderWindow (0x3846580): VTK is designed to work with OpenGL version 3.2 but it appears it has been given a context that does not support 3.2. VTK will run in a compatibility mode designed to work with earlier versions of OpenGL but some features may not work.

Segmentation fault


I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 on my workstation and should probably mention that I receive this error message right after execution of 'paraview', i.e., the Graphical User Interface never appears. Does anybody have a similar problem or know on how to resolve this issue? Thanks!


Best, Thomas
