I went ahead and ran this unity support test, since it seems to be 3D acceleration-related X.Org: 1.11.3 drivers: ati (unloaded: fbdev,vesa) Resolution: Renderer: Gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe (LLVM 0x300) GLX Version: 2.1 Mesa 8.0.2 Graphics: Card: Advanced Micro Devices nee ATI Rage 128 Pro Ultra TF GL_NV_conditional_render, GL_AMD_draw_buffers_blend, OpenGL renderer string: Gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe (LLVM 0x300) Resources: memory:f8000000-fbffffff ioport:de00(size=256) memory:fe9fc000-fe9fffff memory:fea00000-fea1ffffĪny advice on what UNCLAIMED means and how to resolve it would be awesome, since I'm really curious as to what that's all about.

I know this is an old piece of hardware, but it seems as though there should be a proprietary driver out there for this card. Note that the integrated graphics on the machine only have only an 8MB aperture, and Oolite on Window$ XP seemed to run better than in Linux with a descrete card - which is completely and utterly suprising. Perhaps the fact that the card is old and has only 16MB of RAM could means that it's working as well as it's ever going to work, but please keep reading.
I should also state that the cards performance is mostly good, it's really the 3D acceleration that seems to be rather slow (namely in games). I apologize straight-away for asking about such a legacy device, but I've read some conflicting things about this old graphics card I got recently for $6. Basic specs: Dimension 4600i, Pentium 4, 1 GB RAM, 16 MB ATI Rage 128 Pro Ultra TF, Mint 13 MATE 32-bit.
