Can a inspiron 1100 run unity-3d?

[Henk506]

Is it possable to get my inspiron 1100 laptop to run unity-3d. Personaly I think unity-2d is pretty but not very configurable. I want something configurable. Is it possable to get it running on this laptop.

Hi, from what I can tell after researching it to make sure is that your video card it not supported in unity 3D it is just to old.

You can use unity 2D though.
Thank you

[Henk506]

how about gnome 3 will it run fine plese give me something configurable that is not kde because kde is hideous in my opinion

[wildmanne39]

Hi, I am not sure I have never used it, you can try xubuntu or lubuntu one of those should work it will help if I know what you are wanting exactly.
