Thank for the link, but I want to use VTK with Python, do you have any link
for that?
I installed mesa using the command "sudo apt-get install mesa-common-dev",
can you tell me where the files are located? I am unable to find the
location of these files to give on VTK cmake menu.

Thanks,
Shripad D
