[Paraview] newbie question -- cannot run simple example

[newsboost]

I already have python-vtk installed and have had it installed the whole 
time together with paraview-python - still I got the problem I mentioned 
in the initial post...

I feel more safe in terms of conflicting behaviour when I use ubuntu 
package manager for as many things as possible. If everything else 
fails, however, I'll try to follow your suggestion and compile from source..
