The default installation makes two binaries, s-povray and x-povray (or
was it without the hyphens?). The former is the shell version and the
latter is the X binary. The binary which is built when making to the
target unix (or newunix) is a general console version and it's binary
is called povray. You shouldn't have this one installed if you did a
default installation. Try the other two instead.
