Bug#600426: VTK OpenGL 3D Texture Mapping volume rendering fails

[Steve M. Robbins]

Package: slicer
Version: 3.6.0~svn13936-1
Severity: normal

I loaded a volume into slicer, opened the VolumeRendering module and
the default "VTK CPU Ray Casting" rendering method works fine, albeit
slow.

The "VTK OpenGL 3D Texture Mapping" method displays nothing in the
3D window but this appears on the console:

ERROR: In /build/buildd-vtk_5.6.0-2-amd64-kbFxsX/vtk-5.6.0/Rendering/vtkVolume.cxx, line 362
vtkVolume (0x5a2a7b0): You must specify a mapper!

(The "VTK GPU Ray Casting" method also fails, but this appears to be a
VTK bug; see http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=600424)
