    It took me some time to get QEMU to work nicely, I read a lot of outdated information and tutorials, only to find that to proper way to do it was rather simple.

    He would be using compiz or beryl with aiglx or xgl. These are fairly easy to set up in some cases and if you want help setting it up, start a new thread with your vid card info.

    I guess it can, but it's on the edge. Also it depends greatly on your video card.

    Perhaps you can start a thread about that.

    A 64MB card (Intel, ATI or NVIDIA) is the bare minimum. So I guess you are not in luck on this one.

    Video memory goes much higher than 64MB. The highest I could find was 1GB.

    As a side note, I need to ask...do you even know what 187 means in the context your using it in? I know this is off topic but does ever bug me.
