Cannot Run Unity 3d on HP Pavilion g4
I recently bought a new HP Pavilion g4 laptop and installed Ubuntu 12.04 on a separate partition with Windows 7 on its original partition. I initially had problems installing so I ultimately installed from the alternate disc with 'nomodeset' selected from the f6 options. I am not running Ubuntu on a virtual machine. After a few days I discovered that only Unity 2d was running. I ran /usr/lib/
I originally asked this question on ask ubuntu, you can find that thread here: http://
I don't know what else to do. This is a brand new system that should be capable of running Unity. I have an Intel Pentium processor and 4 gigs of RAM. I am missing a lot of functionality without Unity so please help. I've included some system details below. I'm a relative newcomer to Ubuntu and Linux so please be patient.
