Hi folks, I am happy  to finally be able to actually write to this 
group, I am a Linux Convert! (from windows 2000, which is still on my 
drive, but used only bu my wife :-)

Anyway, I have used pov for windows for eons. I just downloaded the new 
beta (RC4 I think) for linux and can't get the d%mn thing to work!

After extractin the tar, I installed it "./install", as su. This put it 
in /usr/local/lib/povray-3.4.99.4

Then added the environment variable 
"POVINI=/usr/local/lib/povray-3.4.99.4/" to /etc/profile (for BASH)

then added the line
"Library_Path=/usr/local/lib/povray-3.4.99.4/include" to povray.ini.

Having done all this, nothing renders, well, nothing that relies on an 
include file. So POV is not seeing the include files, what else do I 
need to do?


thanks

paul
