Black Inline Images for Interactive-3D-* Notebooks

[james-prior]

This makes a separate issue out of what was mentioned elsewhere.

I am not able to rebuild the inline image output for both Interactive-3D-Earth-Satellites.ipynb and Interactive-3D-Solar-System.ipynb. For those two notebooks, all the inline images turn out as black rectangles. I do not have this problem with the other notebooks, suggesting some interaction with mayavi/vtk stuff. I am using Xubuntu 12.10 i386 in a virtual machine. The following web pages illustrate the issue.

The notebooks themselves are in the jep-black-inline-images-issue branch.

I am going to experiment with Binder as a new way for folks to interact with these notebooks, and when I do so I'll re-run these and confirm that they no longer come out with black inlined images.
