Env: Vars.

Some demos use glut, then you set
ENV:GLUT/FORCE_FS to 1
(FS = Full Screen)
Others dont and then MESA uses its own:
ENV:MESA/FORCE_FS

Maybe for TK and AUX there are other ENV: vars, to. Dont now.
Lightforce for example now starts with a script that takes care of
both env: vars. Just in case...

No. When there is not enough memory in one piece left for example for
textures, my system goes down in speed, too.

Hum. Did you change settings of Cybergraphics Screenmodes?
