I found out how to solve the PNG problem - and that I only
have memory+swap space for the first 65608 lines of the
(65649 lines long) POV file.
I have an "unused"[1] 1 Gb partition on my disk. Can anybody
suggest how I can format and mount this partition as
(additional) swap space for Linux? There is a detail that
makes this a challenging adventure: the machine is in
Denmark and I am in France.
Play well,
Jacob
