For the radiosity to affect media, you need "media on" in the radiosity
block in the global_settings.
The cylindrical pattern have a radius of one (1), you have to scale it to
the radius of your big cylinder. Set your media as scattering and adjust
it's density if it's to light or dense. Also, the big cylinder need to have
the hollow attribute or no media will ever show inside of it.
