In the past two days, I have achieved 3D effects on my laptop and installed VMware6.0Linux. Let's briefly record the process below! 1: To realize 3D effects, you must have an independent video card.

In the past two days, I have achieved 3D effects in my laptop and Installed VMware 6.0 Linux. Let's briefly record the process below!
1: 3D effect implementation
To implement 3D, you must have an independent video card. Fortunately, my Zhaoyang E43A has a unique display card. The model is NVIDIA Quadro NVS 160 M. After knowing the model, download the driver package from the NVIDIA website.
: Http://www.nvidia.cn/Download/index.aspx? Lang = cn
Pack name: NVIDIA-Linux-x86-169.04-pkg1.run
In character mode to install this driver, sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-169.04-pkg1.run after the prompt operation, after the installation is complete, through CentOS yum library to install compiz
[Root @ Linuxsir/] # rpm-qa | grep compiz
Compiz-devel-0.0.13-0.37.20060817git.el5.centos.1
Compiz-0.0.13-0.37.20060817git.el5.centos.1
In System -- preferences -- desktop effect, select "Shake window when moving" and "workspace on cube", and then click "enable desktop Effect". If no error message is displayed, then 3D effects are basically configured.
However, I encountered the following error:
Desktop effects cocould not be enabled
Google:/etc/X11/xorg. the conf file needs to be modified. After the file is modified and logged out, you can enable the desktop effect. Press "ctrl + alt + 3D 3D" to switch to the desktop in 3D. You need to modify the file as follows! (Tip: Back up the file as much as possible before modification)
Add the following three lines at the end:
Section "Extensions"
Option "Composite"
EndSection
Section "Device" (Add the following line under this line)
Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True"
Section "Module" (Add the following row under this row)
Load "extmod"
2: There is nothing to say about the installation of VMware 6.0. rpm-ivh VMware *. rpm is done, and then run the VMware-config.pl to configure some of the necessary parameters, but I have an error message starting the virtual machine installed under vista
VMware Workstation unrecoverable error: (vcpu-0)
Failed to allocate page for guest RAM!
........................................................................
Google, the answer will soon be found!
To modify the vmx file, add the following line:
MainMem. useNamedFile = "FALSE"
Save and start.
In the evening, emerald effect and Compiz Fusion are installed on the notebook. Cut down the figure and show it!
