161 | PROBLEM:- I can't turn on Anisotropic Filtering, Ripple Water, or AGP. | 151 | SOLUTION:- Some Linux desktop 'Visual Effects' features are incompatible |
162 | SOLUTION:- Some graphics performance features in Second Life are disabled | 152 | with Second Life. One reported solution is to use your desktop |
163 | by default for the Linux version due to stability issues with some common | 153 | configuration program to disable such effects. For example, on Ubuntu 7.10, |
164 | Linux graphic drivers. You can re-enable these features at the slight | 154 | use the desktop toolbar menu to select System -> Preferences -> Appearance, |
