[vtkusers] Need help installing VTK on Linux

[Jonathan Ruiz Peinado]

I've written a guide recently, check it out, is in Spanish, but got lot of
copy and paste stuff, and also say something about dependencies...

sudo apt-get install default-jdk libgl1-mesa-dev freeglut3-dev
libosmesa6-dev swig

It's for VTK+GDCM+JAVA. in linux Ubuntu
