<div><br></div>1. You want to use 4.6.x. You can install Qt from the nokia website if your compiler matches the one they used to build with (VS 2008). Or you can build it yourself.<div><br></div><div><a href="http://qt.nokia.com/downloads/windows-cpp-vs2008">http://qt.nokia.com/downloads/windows-cpp-vs2008</a></div>
<div><br></div><div><a href="http://qt.nokia.com/downloads/windows-cpp-vs2008"></a>2. MS-MPI or MPICH2 should both work fine. MS-MPI is here:</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=13644DCD-4022-4BBC-B18F-1C9E9461D5BD&displaylang=en">http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=13644DCD-4022-4BBC-B18F-1C9E9461D5BD&displaylang=en</a></div>

<div><br></div><div><a href="http://www.mcs.anl.gov/research/projects/mpich2/"></a>3. you run pvserver the exact same way but the command is typically called mpiexec. I don't think you need to specify any display options to share the GPU on the local host. <br>

Hi Ken, hi all.<br>I read <a href="http://paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView:Build_And_Install#Build_ParaView" target="_blank">http://paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView:Build_And_Install#Build_ParaView</a> but I need more information about compiling and using ParView 3.8.0 on a workstation with windows XP and a single GPU shared amongst the cores:<br>
<br>1) should I install Qt >= 4.5.0? How can I compile it?<br><br>2) should I install MS-MPI? where can I find it?<br><br>3) on linux I use a command similar to: "mpirun -np 2 pvserver --display: 0.0 --use-offscreen-rendering" to run pvserver in parallel, but on windows I have these questions:<br>
- how can I run pvserver in parallel?<br> - how can I/should I specify to share the single GPU amongst the cores? on linux I use the paramenter "--display: 0.0" as explained in: <a href="http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/Setting_up_a_ParaView_Server#Sharing_GPUs_Amongst_Processes" target="_blank">http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/Setting_up_a_ParaView_Server#Sharing_GPUs_Amongst_Processes</a><br>
<br>Thank you very much<br>
