IIRC it's in /usr/local/share/doc/povray-3.4.11

To render a scene, try
povray -i/usr/local/lib/povray-3.4.11/scenes/advanced/chess2.pov -f

-i The input file
-f Don't save the rendered image to disk

If you want to change the size, try e.g. +w800 +h600.

This assumes that you have POV-Ray 3.5 Beta 11 at
ftp://ftp.povray.org/pub/povray/Official/Linux/3.5beta/
