[Paraview] Problem with remote display (Exceed)

[ALIZIER Julien AUSY]

Hi Bernhard,

I have had a similar problem. The solution is to enable GLX support in
Exceed.

You need "Exceed 3D" (I think there are "3D" and "non-3D" version of Exceed)
:
- right-click on Exceed taskbar button
- Select "Tools..." > "Configure..."
- then select "Protocols..." (the handshake icon)
- then click on the button "Extensions..."
- Check both "GLX" checkboxes
- OK -> OK -> OK
- open your remote session and try

I am using Exceed 3D 7.1, so the menu entries might be a bit different

Regards,

-- Julien

Objet : [Paraview] Problem with remote display (Exceed)



I'm trying to run ParaView 1.8.5[1] on a Linux-machine.
When I start ParaView locally at the machine it works, but when I
start it over the Network (the DISPLAY is my Windows-machine with
Exceed 9.0) the Splash-Screen appears and then ParaView stops. The
only message in the Terminal is

[bgschaid at gcdw89 ~]$ paraview
X Error of failed request:  BadRequest (invalid request code or no such
operation)
  Major opcode of failed request:  139 (GLX)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  21 ()
  Serial number of failed request:  1086
  Current serial number in output stream:  1086
[bgschaid at gcdw89 ~]$

I'm using the precompiled binaries.

Obviously there seems to be problem with OpenGL-Acceleration. I tried
the --use-software-rendering switch, but this doesn't make any
difference. 

Is there a chance, that I can make this problem go away by recompiling
ParaView? Or is there any other way to fix this?

Footnotes: 
[1]  The same thing happened with older versions too.
