I am using linux. When check with which vtk, I get
/data/VTK/bin/vtk

Does not this enough telling me that PATH setting alright?

When I installed Python & VTK4.n, I once forced installing
Mesa-3.4-10.i386.rpm to upgrade a previous version. I followed
the procedures "Installing Python & VTK  Linux RedHat 7.x" 
(found at http://www.imaging.robarts.ca/coders/)
though my version is newer than 7.x.

Thank you David.
