[vtkusers] vtk-7.1 openGL 2.0 crash

Two options I know of

1) build your executable against Mesa so it will run everywhere

2) gracefully test if the hardware supports OpenGL2 and gracefully exit if
not. In current VTK you can do this but I think in 7.1 it may not work.
Basically call renWin->GetSupportsOpenGL() and handle accordingly.
