 Mandrake 9.1
 Povray 3.5c
 pyvon

 (also going to try kmodeller now I have KDE3.1)

I've been using Linux for about 18 months, and Povray for about a year.  I 
don't use Povray much, just when I want a 3D image for something.

cheers

Could you please tell how does Itanium compare to P4? Are there any
performance comparison data available (say, for SUSE running on P4 vs. SUSE
running on IA64)?..

stuff, glibc-2.3.2 etc :) ), kernel 2.4.20aa1, used Linux since 1994.
Heavily patched Povray 3.5.

not exactly but...

well...  DJGPP 2.03 under DOS and MinGW 2.0.0-3 in console box under Windows
since they are fastest free command line solutions for WinDOS, They are rather
environment extensions/shells than Linux/Unix but use mostly the same tools and
accepts makefiles and scripts dedicated for Unix/Linux.

do not remember... perhaps started about 4-5 years ago

currently: Mandrake 9.1 & POV-Ray 3.5.

Started with slackware, from 3.5 i think, up to 8.0, get fed up with kernel
compilation and switch to Mandrake. Using povray on linux since version 3.0,
more or less

I never used a non-unix version.
I started with 3.0 or 3.1, can't remember exactly. That was in 2000 or 2001.
I now use 3.5 on several linux'es: an old SUSE, an old RedHat and a
recent Debian. The original 3.0 or 3.1 was included with the old SUSE, but
since then I always installed and sometimes compiled by hand. Parallel to
the official 3.5 I use a patched 3.5 on one machine (own unworthy patch).
