[vtkusers] Mac/VTK/Qt problems

[Joey Mukherjee]

I am trying to get VTK working on my Mac, and although everything is
compiling okay, some of the example applications do not work.  The one
in particular I am trying to get to work is qtevents which is the
closest to my own application.

What is wrong is there are artifacts all over the rendering window and
the window has enormous amounts of flicker.  It seems to have
something to do with the fact that there is an interactor instead of
just a render window.  All the render window (e.g. Cone and
SpecularSpheres) applications work just fine!

Some specifics in case it matters:

1) I am compiling everything static;
2) I am using Qt v4.5.1 and the latest VTK from CVS;
3)  I am using OS-X 10.4.11 on a PowerPC G4, but building everything universal.

Can anyone think of anything I can check to fix this issue?  It seems
like it is either a driver issue or something, but I don't know where
else to look...

One small bug: when compiling static, the build process still wants to
create the QtDesigner plugin.

Thanks!
