Have you stated the full path to the image-file?

Is the image-file really a valid PNG-file?

	Do you at least see a yellow/blue-ish gradient behind the "cube", when
you have "SkyDome" enabled but _no_ image selected?

BTW, what does the command...

	glxinfo -l | grep GL_MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE

... in a terminal-window report you?

	It's a bit hard doing these "remote diagnostics" when people have
problems and one does know little to nothing about the system in
question.

	I've no idea about a TwinView-setup. At least I cannot test something
like this myself.

Best regards...
