I am trying to run Second Life (
http://secondlife.com/) on my Acer Aspire laptop with a 128 MB shared
Intel GMA950 videocard
Second Life can be installed via Pisibul
The thing is that I get an error message: 'Window creation error'
I have no problem with 3d acceleration
The console gives the following information:

When I tried to change my resolution with 915resolution, the output stays the same.
After I changed xorg.conf into:
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "VideoCard0"
Monitor "Monitor0"
DefaultDepth 32
Subsection "Display"
Depth 32
Modes "1280x800" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubsection
EndSection
(Changed 16 to 32) I couldnt log into Pardus anymore...
Now what to do to play Second Life
