The reason is this: Laptops use system memory for integrated graphics and have no real video memory whatsoever.
System memory being DDR/2/3...
Not true of all laptops. For instance, current-gen 15" and 17" MacBooks (except the cheapest 15" model) have both integrated graphics and a discrete graphics chip with 256 or 512 MB of dedicated VRAM.)
Indeed, On my MacBook Pro, I see:
Code:
NVIDIA GeForce 320M:
Chipsetmodel: NVIDIA GeForce 320M
Type: GPU
Bus: PCI
VRAM (totaal): 256 MB
Fabrikant: NVIDIA (0x10de)
On my MacBook was also Windows partition that runs with bootcamp. Im am a complete windows novice, but out of curiosity I downloaded Oolite for windows and fired that up. Plays nice. Now I have to figure out how to transfer mac files to the windows partition, as the partition is read only from the mac without option to change it. (any tips ?)
I see small differences in the log, ran from the same computer. Apple is very conservative in its OpenGL versions.
