Hi Mathieu, thanks for responding.
Our setup allows ssh from the campus network to a login node, then you can only access a compute node via the scheduler (LSF). ssh to login, then LSF to compute node. Applications (ParaView) may not be run on a login node. A user may reserve an interactive session on a compute node through LSF. (But then ParaView would need to be build with the GUI).
I was staring at your past threads and the GitHub issues where you are discussing documentation. I thought we need QT GUI with mesa library, but when I was reading superbuild README, I misunderstood and took ‘qt5, mesa, osmesa, egl are mutually exclusive’ to mean ‘you can’t specify more than one of those cmake options when configuring’.
So just now, I finished a successful install by choosing enable_qt5 and enable_mesa. I was just stuck on thinking it wasn’t possible to pick both. It worked fine.
Thanks again!
Lisa
