Did you try NVWISH2.2.gz also at http://geni.ath.cx/nviz.html ?
Actually, I compiled these files with the latest CVS version, so it
can happen that you cannot run it in your environment; it may depend
on the pre-compiled 5.7 package. But I think it doesn't matter.

If you didn't install NVWISH2.2.gz, just try this:

gzip -d NVWISH2.2.gz
cp -f NVWISH2.2 /usr/local/grass-5.7/etc/nviz2.2

Hope this helps.
