Thanks for reporting. My group found this yesterday - you beat me to writing a bug report!

I am marking as project Sandia, since this will get the bug fixed sooner.

Developer notes:

vtkPointSpriteRepresentation is a subclass of vtkGeometryRepresentation that changes the this->GeometryFilter class used. vtkGeometryRepresentation is assuming that this->GeometryFilter is always a vtkPVGeometryFilter (e.g at vtkGeometryRepresentation.cxx:407). That's causing the problem. You can fix line 407, by simply using vtkAlgorithm::SetInputData() API. You don't need to downcast is to anything.

Also fix vtkGeometryRepresentation::SetupDefaults to do the PVGoemetryFilter defaults only if it is indeed of the right type.

I don't think this is correct yet. I just did the following:

Clean, fresh, nothing set .plugins both sides.
Linux, remote server, 8 parallel pvservers, master.
Load can.exo.
Tools/ Manage Plugins. Add PointSprite remote. Add PointSprite local. Close.
Now, try to change Representation Surface to PointSprite. It won't be in the pull down!

Alan, you need to load the plugin before opening the dataset. Alternatively, delete the view and create a new 3D view and then show the output from can.ex2 in it.
