Hi,
My Beta 40 has a problem with the biscuit example on Slackware 13.0 x86_64.
(/usr/local/share/povray-3.7/scenes/advanced/biscuit.pov)
povray biscuit.pov is fine - biscuit.png looks OK.
povray +W1024 +H768 biscuit.pov - OK.
Then I incremented W and H by 1 through to:
povray +W1159 +H903 biscuit.pov - OK.
povray +W1160 +H904 biscuit.pov - crash.
The crash is repeatable, but I seem to get 2 different flavours
of error messages. I get the same problem with 3 other renders that
I tried. A couple of my own and also with
/usr/local/share/povray-3.7/scenes/advanced/abyss.pov
I don't have this problem when I go back to Beta 38.

Anybody any ideas? Is it my PC or is it Beta 40?

Cheers,

That would be beta 40, it has a change that apparently doesn't work
properly under Linux. I'll sort it out and let you know how to patch it.
