HI Mauro, I don't know where you heard about povray needing 3d acceleration. This is not true. But perhaps you think about the kpovmodeler? Anyway, it should not need too much performance for hardware acceleration, because it only needs opengl for realtime preview.
Anyway, MACH64-chips SUPPORT 3d-acceleration, as I wrote in the message below, but only to a minor extent and with a not-officially-released patch. Anyway, you only need major 3d-acceleration for CAD or games, raytracers like povray shoud do it though.
