Hello folks.

I'm getting the same three errors as the original poster trying to run NWN2 after a successful install. I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 with a 256MB Nvidia graphics card.

* Your video card has less than 128 mb of video memory
* Unable to detect a video card with hardware 3D acceleration
* Hardware 3D acceleration appears to be disabled

I have confirmed "Direct Rendering: Yes", and I get a framerate of close to 4,000 fps on the video test.

I have the latest version of POL and Wine. I have installed the Advanced Wine Configuration plugin and used it to set
-"OffscreenRenderingMode" to "backbuffer"
-"VideoMemorySize" to 256

I have tried installing with the install button as well as with the script posted by Sam98961.

I'm afraid this is my first experience with POL, so I haven't understood all of the discussion on this thread so far. If someone could help me figure out what else I need to do to get things running, I would be very grateful.
