I recently installed POV on Linux (Red Hat 6.1). Problem is, x-povray does not
create a preview window while rendering. If I force this with +d x-povray exits
with an error about being unable to initialize the display. Both POV and the X
server are running on the same machine, so -display <name> should not be needed.
Has anybody else had this problem or could recommend a solution? I'm a total
Linux newbie so the cause could be something silly...
Thanks

Margus
