Ok, found your message.  You have to recompile vtk if you want to make
it work with python2.5.  But this is not a good idea, it is much
simpler to use the default python version for your distribution.  Your
problem with python 2.6 seems to be
   https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pytables/+bug/509100
and a fix is mentioned there.
