The default configuration of OSMesa will enable OpenSWR (Intel's software rasterization library to run OpenGL). What you'll end up with is a ParaView server that uses OSMesa for offscreen CPU-based rendering without X but with both llvmpipe (oder and slower) and SWR (newer and faster) drivers built. We recommend using SWR. | ||
