It seems like you are talking about disk space instead of ram or
virtual memory.

Anyways this error is not usually caused by not having enough memory.
Run your application from the terminal to try to see what the real
problem is. Post the terminal output on pastebin.com and link here.

Well the first part says you do not have your graphics driver
correctly installed. Do you have the 32 bit opengl driver for your
card installed? Also if you have a nVidia or AMD card you should avoid
the open source drivers and instead use the proprietary binary
drivers.

This is something to ask your distro about if you are using linux.
