[vtkusers] VTK4.0+wxPython+PPC Linux on a mac

[Harris Scott R CIV AFRL/SNJM]

Yes, I generally keep an eye out for wxPython/VTK issues, but I did overlook
the fact there are different
wxVTKRenderWindows (one from wxPython and one from VTK 4.0 (yours)). I'll
try the VTK version and see if 
that fixes it.

I've gererally lucky with the wxVTKRenderWindow; the flicker problems in the
past never were a problem on my system. I just assumed that my problem must
lie elsewhere...

Hi Scott,

There've been tons of messages about wxPython and VTK over the
past few weeks (some as recent as today or yesterday).  Have you
searched the mailing list archives?
