Ixthusdan Posted July 8, 2007 Report Share Posted July 8, 2007 On both my brother's machine and my own, I cannot get Doom 3 to run while using a 3D desktop. I must turn of 3D and then the game will launch. It complains about lacking virtual memory when attempting to launch. Any solutions? We both use Nvidia video cards with Nvidia drivers. (GeForce 7300 GS) I have 2G of RAM, 667 MHz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iphitus Posted July 15, 2007 Report Share Posted July 15, 2007 by 3D desktop do you mean XGL? XGL is inherently broken. Don't use it. James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadioEar Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 I guess we need a list of what works and what doesn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randomuser83 Posted June 26, 2008 Report Share Posted June 26, 2008 Does anyone have such a list that they are willing to post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joste Posted August 17, 2008 Report Share Posted August 17, 2008 I wouldn't bother trying as performance will suffer anyway - if I play sauerbraten with compiz enabled I get 10 - 20 fps with it off I get 50 - 100 fps. Fusion-icon is a handy little app for switching between compiz and whatever other WM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
