You can install a 32 bit version of the open source 3D driver as well. Just because the graphics in a game do not appear to be 3D, they generally still use a 3D API (OpenGL or Direct3D) which requires a 32 bit 3D driver since the apps are 32 bit. Also there seem to be several possibly unrelated issues now piled onto this bug. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
