That might not be the case because, the nVidia rpms only provide the
OpenGL library and not the headers.  IIRC, the headers that ship with
RH also had a problem so, the problem may also be due to this.  My
suggestion is to visit the search email link from the vtk home page

	   http://public.kitware.com/htdig/search.html

and enter the string

"HOWTO get VTK 3.1.2 to work on RedHat 7.0" and then search.

You should hit some informative messages.

HTH,
