[3ddesktop-dev] 3ddesk with SiS 630?

Hi, together,

I compiled and installed current 3ddesk on an IBM NetVista X40 with SiS 630 
shared-memory graphics adapter. (Yeah, I know...)

I found that my card provides some OpenGL acceleration using the standard xorg 
driver provided by SGI, so I tried to run this little gimmick ;-)

If I start "3ddeskd --acquire", it will only grab the first desktop and stand 
still on the second throwing the following error:

[sis_tex.c:100] Failure to allocate texture memory.

If I run the 3ddesk program directly, it will zoom my CURRENT desktop 
correctly away and the other desktops appear gray. If I swap to one other 
desktop, it will again issue the above error. (and the daemon dies...).

If I restart 3ddesk again, the same thing happens.

Can someone have a look at the line above? Is it an output of 3ddesk itself or 
rather from my xorg driver?

Cheers,
Thomas
