OpenGL Extension Viewer crashes VM ->Fixed in SVN

[Technologov]

Host: Win XP, VBox 2.1.0, Intel Core 2, ATI Radeon 3850

Guest: Win XP, 3D enabled, 512 MB RAM, 16 MB VRAM

Running Realtech-VR "GL Extension Viewer" v2.05 - it shows the OpenGL capabilities or extensions, but if I try to launch a test - the VM halts. So I have to terminate it.

Log attached.

Crashed VM log

Hrm, the log looks to be from a normal termination. Are you sure you've atttached the right one?

GL Extensions Viewer is freeware: (and it is a very small download)

Can you try it?

The GL Extensions Viewer works for me. Though 3D applications don't. Eg: The rendering tests leave an unusable artifact on the screen, even after the application exits. The only remedy is to reboot. But the VM doesn't crash.

My host system is a Gentoo Linux box running the proprietary nVidia drivers on a Dell Core 2 Duo system in 32-bit mode. Guest is WinXP SP3. Haven't tried Linux of any species but that's next. I've been having too much fun trying to get other features working. :)

But, and I forgot about this, I do get an unhandled exception trying to run the rendering tests. it's a Windows error, not something generated by Linux or VB.

Partially fixed in svn, host vm doesn't crash, though there's segfault in the guest app.

This is similar to bug #4962
