Z, I had strange system dependent issues when using gtk with vtk interfaced via gtkglext. I didn't have the same problem you described, but certain actors would not appear if I was displaying things on a mac. Specifically, if I tried to display both a vtkVolume and an vtkActor, the vtkVolume would disappear. I could run something remotely on a linux box with the display on the mac, and I'd have the same error as if running locally on a mac. On the other hand, if I ran on a mac but displayed on a linux box, it would work. This led me to believe that there was some strange interaction between the version of X-windows on the mac and gtkglext. When I discovered that gtkglext was not necessary to interface gtk and vtk as discussed here ( http://www.vtk.org/pipermail/vtkusers/2008-April/094892.html ), the errors went away. My suggestion is to try to have vtk display in a regular gtk DrawingArea within whatever language you are using. If that happens to be Python, I've described how to do this in the link above.
