It's quite apparent to me at this point that /something/ is fishy about
the POV-Ray binary you're using on your laptop.

This immediately raises the following questions:

- Do any of the sample scenes render properly on your laptop?

- What does "povray --version" output on the two Ubuntu computers?

- What versions of Ubuntu are you using on the two machines?

My current best bet is that you're using a different version of POV-Ray
on the laptop machine, and that there's some bug in that version. If
that is the case, I'd really like to get down to the bottom of it.
