[Running Out Of Texture Memory]

Has there been any new information re:  this issue running out of texture memory.  It is still an ongoing problem for me and my Mac.  Any update would be appreciated.

[Running Out Of Texture Memory]

I am also having this issue and has been troublesome for months.  Just in the past couple of weeks the problem has developed a rather irritating and fascinating twist.  After the message appears "# textures discarded due to insufficient memory 1 or 2 or 4 or 6" I either crash or get a flashing texture show on some items in my viewing range.  Random textures flash on mostly larger thinner prims.  I have tried all the above suggestions with no results.

I use a iMac   Processor Name:Intel Core i5 Processor Speed:2.66 GHz Number Of Processors:1 Total Number Of Cores: L2 Cache (per core):256 KB L3 Cache:8 MB ,Memory:8 GB

graphics::ATI Radeon HD 4850

Come on Lindens or someone.. There must be some sort of fix for this!  Please?
