Last time I post this problem, I swear, but after upgrading to 3.1 it's
still there)

Hi all I upgraded  to vtk 3.1 and I am still having problems running some
of the python examples, with the same error message as last time, just to
humour me could someone go to their examples directory (using the 3.1
examples) and type,

python KSpline.py

and tell me if they get it to run or if they get following error 

Traceback (innermost last):
  File "KSpline.py", line 49, in ?
    glyphPoints.SetInput(inputData)
SystemError: NULL result without error in call_object  

(NOte some of the examples (mace.py) do work!)

Here is some version info

(I am using the vtk3.1-456 rpms)

Also Mesa 3.1beta-1-3

Can't think of what else it would be, I don't think it's a problem in
terms of compiling anything with shared suppourt (as I said some of the
python examples work fine, if there was no shared suppourt I suspect none
of them would work)


The rest of my system is RH6.0 (python and Mesa etc. are current packages)
