If nothing helps, you may try to reset PYTHONPATH (as suggested > in 529961): > PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:/usr/lib/python-support/python-vtk/python2.5/vtk > Yes, that works. "PYTHONPATH=PYTHONPATH:/usr/lib/python-support/python-vtk/python2.5/vtk mayavi2" is able to successfully launch mayavi2. Curious that your system does work.
