Linux's silent but important role
Weta Digital, the visual effects company that gave life to the flora
and fauna on Pandora, uses Linux and other Linux-based software to
achieve all those cutting edge graphics. It utilizes one of the
world's largest Linux clusters (ranked #193 amongst the top 500
supercomputers) for film rendering, with Red Hat Enterprise Linux
(RHEL) as their OS.
(some guys said it's Ubuntu

)
The CGI are created using 64-bit Linux-based software for painting
textures and 3D modeling.
