Hi Luca,
No luck - still says no module named vtk.
I learnt that vmtk relied on vtk and I was trying to test an example from
vtk's tutorial folder before running vmtk but I had an error like :
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
ERROR: In /home/vm308/src/VTK/Rendering/vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow.cxx, line 404
vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow (0xc4c75a0): Could not find a decent visual
Segmentation fault
