Hi Sean-

If you are running the shell script to start the IDV from 
a terminal window, do you get an OutOfMemory error?

Another thing is that for such a large image, it takes a while
to render.  It might take a minute after the please wait message
is gone.

VisAD determines the texture size from the card and then 
breaks the image up into the appropriate number of textures.
So, you shouldn't be exceeding the card limitation.
