Hi Prabhu (and list),

Thanks for the quick reply.

No error messages or a core dump or anything like that?

Nothing. Just a lot of inaction. And gkrellm doesn't show any unusual
CPU activity either, so I think it's not just a slowness problem. I've
replicated this problem on two machines - my ix86 laptop and an amd64
desktop, so that pretty much rules out anything hardware specific, I
think.

Can you run
any of the TVTK examples? cd to tvtk/examples and run any of the
examples you see there and see if those work.

tiny_mesh, simple, array_animation, off_screen, & texture_glyph all
work as expected. Animated texture throws an error that I suspect is
unrelated:

Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "animated_texture.py", line 95, in ?
   img = image_from_array(array_3d)
 File "animated_texture.py", line 86, in image_from_array
   img.point_data.scalars = ary_2d
 File "tvtk_classes/data_set_attributes.py", line 126, in _set_scalars
 File "/usr/local/scipy/enthought/src/lib/enthought/tvtk/tvtk_base.py",
line 400, in _wrap_call
   ret = vtk_method(*args)
ValueError: method requires a VTK object

The ivtk_example doesn't work. It does display a window, a screenshot
of the top left-hand corner of which I've attached. The rest of the
window is a continuation of the bottom-right edge. I also get the
error:

(python:5475): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_widget_set_colormap: assertion
`!GTK_WIDGET_REALIZED (widget)' failed

The window persists, with a working menu, but nothing further happens
until I Ctrl-C the process.

If you run into problems you can also try to run the scripts on a
debugger like so:

 gdb python
 (gdb) run script_name.py

Exactly the same thing happened, but I'm not conversant with gdb,  so
I didn't know how to explore further.

and let us know what you get.

BTW, I work on debian testing boxen myself, so things should work.

cheers,
prabhu

I hope this sheds a little more light. I'm very happy to run more
tests if someone tells me what would be useful: I'm afraid I've little
idea where to start with this one.

Angus.
