Yes, this looks OK.

IIUC, resizing the window has no effect, right?
Can you try this:
cd tvtk/examples/plugin
python test.py
See if this starts up fine. Then try to open a new TVTK window by
File->New->VTK Scene.
If this does not work, the best way to find a fix is to use the
pyface/examples/scene.py as a test case, then edit
pyface/tvtk/scene.py the _create_control(...) method is the one which
will need some hacking and experiment with a few print statements
there to see where things are going wrong.
I'm unable to reproduce this on my machines (2 linux boxen with nVidia
cards and one Mac OSX box) which is why I can't do much more than
this.

I can't see why that causes the problem. :(
