[vtkusers] VTK+Qt+Linux Opens Two OpenGL Windows

Hello all, I've googled around but haven't found the magic combo to 
locate the answer to this question.

I'm writing a VTK+Qt application using QVTKWidget. When I start the 
application in linux (fedora 15) two windows open up, both the same 
size. This only happens in Linux, but not win 7.

One is totally blank and titled "Visualization Toolkit - OpenGL." The 
other is the actual application window with the Qt widgets (including 
the QVTKWidget) in it. This window works fine.

So, I'd like to get rid of this second window. I'm actually not sure 
where to begin as I'm pretty new to VTK, so any pointers or hints would 
be greatly appreciated. I'm not even sure which part of the code I could 
post!


Thanks,
Jim
