Hello,
I am currently experiencing trouble starting Paraview on my newly built Linux Station. For the hardware my graphics card is AMD Radeon Pro WX7100 , for system I have LInux Mint 19.2 Cinnamon 4.2.4, for Paraview version I am not entirely sure, my department IT people installed it, I found in my bin two folders of 4.3.1 and 5.2.0 . I tried to start Paraview in terminal and it popped up for half second and closed up with the following errors:
The directory /util/paraview/bin has been temporarily
added to your path for this shell session.Here are the programs available in that directory:
paraview paraview-config pvbatch pvdataserver pvpython pvrenderserver pvserverIf you need to restart the graphical version, type: paraview

I am not sure why this is happening, seems very likely that there’s something to do with the graphic driver or library linking. The IT people in my department don’t want to deal with my AMD card, so I have to figure out what’s wrong and what’s needed to fix this issue so that they could fix it. (I don’t have root access)
