You might look into AC3D (ac3d.org).  It is a mesh editor (from what 
I've seen) and has the ability to export into POV format, among others, 
as well as many import formats (though not POV, unfortunately).  I 
believe the registration fee is around $40, and it has linux as well as 
windows versions.  Realtime OpenGL previewing, and has both statically 
linked binaries as well as dynamically linked libraries, so you can get 
the full bang out of your opengl drivers.
