Hey,
I need help getting Mayavi running. I installed the mayavi, python-vtk and all
required packages from http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/. All examples from
the package vtk-examples run without problems.
Now, when I run test_vtk.py from the mayavi package, I get a Segmentation fault
in the vtkTkRenderWidget test:
>linux:~/tmp/tmp/tmp$ python test_vtk
>Testing if Tkinter is available...
>OK - you have Tkinter
>TclVersion = 8.4, TkVersion = 8.4
>Testing if your overall installation is OK ...
>OK, your installation seems fine!

Strangely if I skip the test_vtk_cone() (by commenting out that function call
inside the function test_vtk(root)), the test_vtk.py script finishes without an
error. However, in this case the vtkTkRenderWidget is empty. The same empty
Widget (only background is displayed) I see when opening the example heart.mv
in the mayavi application.
Do you have any suggestion what may be going wrong, how I can check what
exactly causes the problems and how to fix it?
Regards,
Eike
