It's the video resolution that determines whether it'll fit. A lightweight window manager at the same screen resolution as KDE is going to use the same amount of video memory. I had an ATI Graphics expression card w/2 megs run in 1152x900x16bpp for years before I got my current Matrox card (with 16 megs). The OPs problem was that 2 megs is simply not enough resolution to run 1024x768 at 32bpp. OTOH, 2 megs was enough for the big iron 370 I first learned programming on at the local community college. But it was kinda painful. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ David E.
