i'm trying to read a .vtu file (e.g. temperature000001.vtu from

the error message:

going to file VtkDataReader.py, supported data files are defined within
the list:
supported = ["UNSTRUCTURED_GRID", "STRUCTURED_GRID",

changing the header from: ...UnstructuredGrid to UNSTRUCTURED_GRID (or
other trialled variants), the file opens but nothing shows and a console
error message appears, apparently in a internal "afterPy" vtk routine:

mayavi version problem or something else?
ps: can't get paraview working (missing Qt4.2, only Qt4.3 available)

I also have Mayavi 1.5-4 and it works fine.
Start Mayavi, then click File -> Open -> VTK XML File. Select *.vtu
and then click the VTU file.
The tricky part is to select VTK XML format and then change the suffix
filter to *.vtu.
