Dear vv users,

I am trying to run vv on macOS 10.14.6 with VTK-8.2. I successfully 
compiled the source code but when I am trying to launch it, I have got 
this error:

ERROR: In 
/usr/local/src/VTK-8.2.0/Rendering/OpenGL2/vtkOpenGLRenderWindow.cxx, 
line 754
vtkGenericOpenGLRenderWindow (0x7fed2f0fb800): Unable to find a valid 
OpenGL 3.2 or later implementation. Please update your video card driver 
to the latest version. If you are using Mesa please make sure you have 
version 11.2 or later and make sure your driver in Mesa supports OpenGL 
3.2 such as llvmpipe or openswr. If you are on windows and using 
Microsoft remote desktop note that it only supports OpenGL 3.2 with 
nvidia quadro cards. You can use other remoting software such as 
nomachine to avoid this issue.

Is vv compatible with VTK-8.2 on macOS (I do not have the issue with 
VTK-7.1) ?


Best regards,
Ben
