3d acceleration does not work with 4.1.4 additions
| Reported by: | Sam Morris | Owned by: | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Component: | 3D support | Version: | VirtualBox 4.1.14 |
| Keywords: | Cc: | ||
| Guest type: | Linux | Host type: | Windows |
Description
When running VirtualBox 4.1.4 with Debian (Linux 3.2) and the 4.1.4 guest additions, no program is able to use OpenGL. e.g.,
$ glxinfo Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig name of display: :0.0
Downgrading to the 4.1.12 guest additions (and Xorg 1.11) solves the problem.
Host is Windows 7 64-bit. Graphics card is a Radeon HD 4890.
Forwarded from http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=673437 since others cannot reproduce this bug in Debian.

Whoops, when I said "4.1.4" I meant "4.1.14" in the bug title and description. Sorry about that.

could you please run some ogl app with CR_DEBUG=1 and CR_DEBUG_FILE=/path/to/log/file.log environment variables being set in guest and attach the generated log file here.

I am seeing this too, with a Debian Testing guest on a Windows 7 x64 / NVidia GTX 260 host. Running glxgears with the aforementioned envvars being set has no effect - I still get the same:
Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual
Also I have the same four dri related (EE)s in my Xorg.0.log as yrro.
btw I cannot sign onto the new SSO service with Opera - server error, contact administrator. -.-

Sorry, was writing at 3am, so my language wasn't the clearest. Setting those environment variables and running glxgears (this uses OpenGL, does it not?) does not create a log - I just get the quoted error printed to the console before glxgears quits.

My experience with this is I do have it working. But it takes some fiddling to make it happen. After an upgrade the fallback mode is the only way it works.
remove gnome-shell & gnome-panel then install gnome-shell gnome-panel restore the gnome3 functionality until the next upgrade.

This was with official VBox 4.1.14 deb on Ubuntu 12.04_64 host and 4.1.14 GAs on the SID guest, but works the same on latest from SVN.

Replying to misha:
could you please run some ogl app with CR_DEBUG=1 and CR_DEBUG_FILE=/path/to/log/file.log environment variables being set in guest and attach the generated log file here.
I too get no debug output when these environment variables are set with the 4.1.14 guest additions installed. With 4.1.12 I see the expected debug output. Weird...

This is a packaging issue caused by the multiarch transition. Upgrading libgl1-mesa-dri to version 8.0.2, and then restarting X fixes it.
