Current Release for OpenSim
OpenSim versions of Firestorm do not have Havok. That only matters if you're uploading mesh objects and need to specify the mesh physics properties, or if you need to manipulate the region navmesh for pathfinding. The terms of the Havok license prohibit its use anywhere but Second Life, so it's not present in OpenSim versions.
In order to be able to login to grids other than Second Life, you need to enable a setting. From the login screen, go to
Viewer Menu → Preferences → Advanced → Allow login to other grids. Also see Grid Selector
