Okay, now, I have looked for answers to these questions, but alas have found no luck. First specifications:
AMD Athlon II X4 630 (2.8Ghz)
OC-Z 4GB DDR2-800
Gigabyte MA78LM-S2H (Using on-board Radeon)
My harddrive is a little bit older SATA 160Gig... probably going to end up imaging it over to a new one when I get the money for it.
Okay, so after I did the NEWEST update to 10.04, which after running so many distro's before I don't know why I even upgraded all the way up like I did with this one. So, dumb of me to do, but no going back now.
I booted it back up and got the "Low graphics mode" error. Everything was running smoothly before the upgrade. (This upgrade included the "wget" package and some other updates to miscellaneous stuff.)
I have tried to do everything I have found on forums from earlier versions and so forth. I have ran the commands in the terminal to make sure that all my drivers are still seen as there and they are. It's gotta be something really simple, but I dunno.
I was giving up on it and going to not worry about it, but some games and Blender 3D also seem to not want to run. Photoshop CS2 still runs and everything else, but yeah... I am not big on limitations of the programs I can use. The aesthetically pleasing window things I can do with out. I don't know if this is a problem with something that got upgraded or what... I might try to uninstall Blender and do it over again, but not too sure. It does not really feel like a program based problem as there are other 3D programs that will not open. Maybe it's an OpenGL problem?
