the povrays (pvm povray, mpi povray ) are probably the most graphical of the embarasingly parallel problems. I don't know if mpi-povray works with lam, but i know it works with mpich. most scientists don't care to put something fruity like a "progress meeter" or a "speedup ticker" into their code, so yes, it's hard to find good bell-and-whistle demos for things like trade shows or budget discussions. ==rob -- Rob Latham: linux A-Team Bethlehem, PA USA EAE8 DE90 85BB 526F 3181 1FCF 51C4 B6CB 08CC 0897
