I have Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit Server installed in the box. For setting up ParaView and Mesa I have followed the instructions the links below:</div><div style="margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-size: 14px; vertical-align: baseline; clear: both; word-wrap: break-word; font-family: Arial, 'Liberation Sans', 'DejaVu Sans', sans-serif; line-height: 18px;"><a href="http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView/Users_Guide/Parallel_Rendering#Offscreen_Software_Rendering_via_OSMesa" rel="nofollow" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;

I searched the whole machine but that file is not there. It seems like it didn't get installed.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-size: 14px; vertical-align: baseline; clear: both; word-wrap: break-word; font-family: Arial, 'Liberation Sans', 'DejaVu Sans', sans-serif; line-height: 18px;">Am I supposed to install a library before building Mesa? How can I get that "libOSMesa.so" installed. Thanks for the help in advance.</div></div></body></html>
