Perhaps you should check the websites for those engines. They all say quite clearly what platforms they'll work on, and what is required to build them with.

Why not search the forums, before asking... this has been asked so many times before.. Also lookup the game-engine overview on gamedev..
I have used Irrlicht before and I like it. But Ogre and CS got more features and are a bit more mature.
What you should do is to give each engine at least a week where you just tries it out and modifies the examples.
And then you pick the one you feel was the best one.

Is cross-platform support a necessity for you? The Nebula Device 3D engine is fairly mature, but Windows-centric. Some people are currently compiling the core on Linux, but there's no OpenGL Server to display anything yet, and I'd guess roughly a year before there is. The code is MIT licensed. Nebula1 was commercially proven. The current Nebula2 is not, but probably will be this Christmas.
It depends a lot of what you need.
The best option is to try them all, because they're all good engines.
If you want to make a complete game, I think Crystal Space is the best option. Also look at Crystal Core (see Crystal Space website), because it gives a good overview how to use CS/CEL.

Personally, I love the Irrlicht engine. I find it very intuitive to use and there is a large user base when you need help
