===============================================================================

MegaPOV 1.2.1 for UNIX/Linux, binary linux version (povlinux.tgz) - README file

For the binary distribution for Linux/AMD64

===============================================================================

This is the README file for the compiled version of MegaPOV 1.2.1 for

Linux.  Platform specific instructions for POV-Ray can be found in

README.unix and in chapter 1 of the documentation.

This package contains a statically linked version of MegaPOV 1.2.1

compiled for the AMD64 platform.  It will run on both AMD CPUs supporting

these extensions (Athlon 64, Opteron etc.) and Intel CPUs with the compatible

EM64T extensions.  

Note in contrast to the x86 variant this version is built without SVGALib

display.

The install script can do both system wide installation (requires root 

privileges) as well as user level installation.  Installation as root is the 

recommended method.

MegPOV specific notes:

======================

MegaPOV is a collection of unofficial extensions for the freeware

raytracer POV-Ray.  It is maintained by a group of POV-Community

members - the MegaPOV Team.  Up-to-date versions and information can

be obtained at the MegaPOV website:

http://megapov.inetart.net/

This package contains all files that are necessary to run MegaPOV

in addition to the offical POV-Ray distribution.  If you do not

already have a version of POV-Ray installed you have to get one from

the POV-Ray website:

http://www.povray.org/

otherwise MegaPOV won't function correctly!

If you would like the MegaPOV Documentation in a different format than

it is supplied in this package you can obtain it separately in a

different form at the MegaPOV website.

All further information about using MegaPOV can be found in the

Documentation.

For the conditions for using POV-Ray and modified versions you should

have a look at the POV-Ray license (povlegal.doc) that is included in

this package.

This is a unofficial custom version of POV-Ray in terms of this document.

The POV-Ray Team is not responsible for supporting it.
