[vtkusers] How to compile tutorial example?

[James Frye]

Hey, that's it!

I haven't figured out the dependencies, though, but just repeating the
list of libraries a second time did the trick.  Thanks!

Now I just have to either figure out how to make it run with Xinerama, or
hope FedEx delivers my new display inverter sometime soon :-)

Thanks again,
James
