#16845 new defect

3D stopped working in Ubuntu 16.04 with NVIDIA nouveau 1.0.0

Reported by: Jim Avera Owned by:

Guest type: all Host type: Linux

Description

After updating the OS (possibly including vbox), all my VMs now won't start any longer.

Ubuntu 16.04, kernel 4.4.0-79-generic

Virtualbox Version 5.1.22 r115126 (Qt5.5.1)

NVIDIA graphics card; I think using nouveu driver (please see Xorg.0.log, attached)

If I disable 3D in each VM (and discard saved state!) then they start OK.

Don't know if this was caused by a change in VirtualBox or the OS or driver...

Here is the error pop-up I get when trying to start a previously-working VM:

"This VM was configured to use 3D acceleration. However, the 3D support of the host is not working properly and the VM cannot be started. To fix this problem, either fix the host 3D support (update the host graphics driver?) or disable 3D acceleration in the VM settings (VERR_NOT_AVAILABLE).

Result Code: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005) Component: ConsoleWrap Interface: IConsole {872da645-4a9b-1727-bee2-5585105b9eed}"
