I haven't been able to find a way to force it. All I know is that the following
lines must display in the console or the game will freeze:

libGL error: drmMap of framebuffer failed (Cannot allocate memory)
libGL error: reverting to (slow) indirect rendering
libGL error: drmMap of framebuffer failed (Cannot allocate memory)
libGL error: reverting to (slow) indirect rendering

Like I said, for my system it seems to be completely random. I will sometimes
have to load the game 5-10 times before those lines will be displayed in the
console.
