Great. Good to see we got it working.


Now if your feeling adventurous, try this...

back your povray exe up just in case.

change the following in src/Makefile

CFLAGS = -O3 -maltivec -mtune=powerpc -finline-functions -ffast-math
-fomit-frame-pointer -funroll-loops -fexpensive-optimi
zations -foptimize-sibling-calls -Wno-multichar
CXXFLAGS = $(NOMULTICHAR) -O3 -maltivec -mtune=powerpc -finline-functions -ffast-math
-fomit-frame-pointer -funroll-loops -
fexpensive-optimizations -foptimize-sibling-calls -Wno-multichar -I/sw/include

then

make clean;
make;
sudo make install;
 
I got some significant speed gains with this lot.
