[vtkusers] Corrupted OpenGL graphics in render window for prism ia64

[Remik Ziemlinski]

Hi all,
   I tried compiling vtk 4.4 as well as the cvs version on a Prism vis. 
system with ATI Firegl X3 cards using GCC 3.2.3, however all the 
renderings are corrupted with random patches along the perimeter, plus 
trails left by props when interacted with.  A Mesa equivalent build 
doesn't have such problems, nor do other OpenGL built binaries, such as 
SPECviewperf, Qt demos, or the like.  Has anyone seen this before?

I can see from the vtk Dashboard that 
prism.sci.utah.edu/Linux-sgi-ia64-gcc3.2 has 833 tests as N/A (these are 
precisely the tests that fail for our Prism).  Is this being looked 
into, and are there any hints as to how to resolve it?

uname -a gives:
Linux prism1 2.4.21-sgi306r6 #1 SMP Sat Jun 18 14:43:35 PDT 2005 ia64 
ia64 ia64 GNU/Linux
