4 <title>GUI: 2D Video Acceleration Option is Grayed Out</title>

8 To use 2D Video Acceleration within Oracle VM VirtualBox, your host's
9 video card should support certain OpenGL extensions. On startup,
10 Oracle VM VirtualBox checks for those extensions, and, if the test
11 fails, this option is silently grayed out.

13 <p>
14 To find out why it has failed, you can manually execute the
15 following command:
16 </p>
17 <pre xml:space="preserve">$ VBoxTestOGL --log "log_file_name" --test 2D</pre>
18 <p>
19 It will list the required OpenGL extensions one by one and will
20 show you which one failed the test. This usually means that you
21 are running an outdated or misconfigured OpenGL driver on your
22 host. It can also mean that your video chip is lacking required
23 functionality.
