That seems to be a powerful library, but the requirements are quite high.

OpenCSG is written in C++, uses namespaces and requires the STL. I do not 
expect major compiler incompatibilities under Windows (yes, it runs with 
MSVC6). Under Linux, you must use gcc-3.x.y. gcc-2.95.x will not work, since 
this compiler does not come with a std::map implementation, which is required 
internally. 

To run OpenCSG well, you should have graphics hardware with lots of fill rate. 
NVidia graphics hardware since GeForce and ATI Radeon qualify. The 
OpenCSG::OcclusionQuery option obviously requires occlusion queries, which 
are available since Radeon 9x00 (x>=5) and GeForce3 (beware that the 
GeForce4MX counts as GeForce2!).

CVS version compiles fine, what errors do you get?
