#13748 new defect
Java8 GUI Apps not working in Linux guest

Description
My Host is Windows 7 Enterprise Build 7601 SP1 My Guest is Suse Enterprise Linux Server 11 SP3 with GuestAdditions.
I installed jdk8u25 and eclipse STS Version 3.6.3.RELEASE Build 201411281415 Platform Eclipse Luna SR1 (4.4.1) and when i try to start eclipse i get following error message:
ES2 Prism: Error – reported GLX version = 1.2 GLX version 1.3 or higher is required
This seems to be caused by the eclipse internal webbrowser.
And the problem seems to be that the glx version provided by the virtual box's graphic card driver is just too old.
The only way i was able to solve the issue was to downgrade java to jdk7u71.
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
the problem seems to be solved with VBox 5.0r101573 and java8u51. but i am really wondering how it comes that in 7 months nobody commented on this
