A tiling.pov sample scene is installed along with POV-Ray and in linux 
it can be found at:

<install_dir>/share/povray-3.8/scenes/textures/patterns/tiling.pov

The install directory is normally /usr/local.

You can also find the most current versions of the sample scenes 
directory on github. For example:

https://github.com/POV-Ray/povray/tree/master/distribution/scenes/textures/patterns
