LuxRender is a new, open-source, free software rendering system for
physically correct, unbiased image synthesis.

Rendering with LuxRender means simulating light according to physical
equations, this produces realistic photographic quality images.

It's an authorized fork of the PBRT project, focusing on production
rendering and artistic efficiency.

Please read our Features and Goals and philosophy pages for more
information.

Why another unbiased renderer ? Read our FAQs page for details.

LuxRender comprises an interactive GUI, a command line tool, and Blender
exporter plugins.
For developers, we also provide a C/C++ API allowing to embed LuxRender into
third-party applications.

LuxRender runs on GNU/Linux, MS-Windows(R) and MacOS X(R) platforms.

If you would like to show your support for our project, please register on
our forums and leave us a message.

HELP WANTED: Ask not what your renderer can do for you, but what you can do
for your renderer.

I have used the LuxRender plug-in for Blender and get great results with very
little effort.   Basically you create a scene in Blender with at least one
light source.  Then run the LuxRender render script (not an export script) and
sit back and watch the beauty happen.

See luxrender.net for more info.

The LuxRender2 page doesn't seem to exist. I downloaded LuxRender from 
the luxrender.net
page but can't do anything with it. The online documentation I found 
seemed unhelpful and I
couldn't find a way of downloading it. I have great difficulty in 
reading HTML based
documentation. Can it be used with Pov-Ray?

Bloody likely not. So actually this is off-topic here - which the 
original poster was obviously well aware of, but didn't seem to bother 
much about respecting that.

Thanks. The best I could figure out, it doesn't and so is little (i.e 
no) use to me.
