Hello there,

A Good Evening and TGIF :-)!

Couple of days ago I compiled the latest CVS version of Paraview (3.7.0-cvs) on two machines.... one was my laptop at home [Centrino 1.6GHz - 32bit; 512 MB RAM; Fedora 10 (32bit)], and the other... one of the machines at work [Intel Core 2 Duo 2.4GHz - 64bit; 3 GB RAM; Fedora 10 (64bit)].

After compiling and installing ParaView into the "ThirdParty" folder, I recompiled vtkPV3Foam and PV3FoamReader so that they would be compatible with the new version of ParaView.

On the Laptop, the OpenFOAM reader (through paraFoam) is working perfectly fine, but on the machine at work when I run paraFoam, ParaView-3.7.0 starts up, loads the OpenFOAM case, but then, nothing but a very thin line of sparsely located points appear on the screen.

No error windows pop up, neither ParaView nor the OpenFOAM reader complains about anything unusual.... all the patches, fields and time steps are listed in the respective locations, and when I change the time-step, ParaView even shows the progress bar stating that it is updating the changes....

Basically, I am not able to figure out what the reason could be..... the only difference I can see between the two systems, is that one is a 32-bit setup whereas the other is a 64-bit setup.

Additionally, I am able to view for example the "cone" source, and also open the OpenFOAM case once I convert it to the VTK format using foamToVTK (on the same ParaView-3.7.0 setup)..... proving that it is not a generic graphics problem...

Any ideas from any of the bleeding edge ParaView users?? Takuya... any leads??

Have a lovely weekend !!
