yup. just download the sources from 

http://cil.andrew.cmu.edu/projects/visual/download/VisualSource-2001-02-27.zip

and unzip into your Python folder. i had to change the link line to
/MD from /MT, other than that, it works out of the box.

your residue.py script still runs fine on my machine with the latest
version of the source code and the visual python scripts
(Visual-2001-03-08).

do other GL programs run okay on your system? for example, do you have
the VTK stuff? does that run too?
