Segmentation fault in vboxstub_glXMakeCurrent with 3D acceleration -> Fixed in SVN.

[cornelius]

When I try to run ubigraph_server (which can be found here: ​http://www.ubietylab.net/ubigraph/index.html ), I get a segmentation fault. The debugging output is below, as well as a backtrace (without symbols). It seems like the problem is in vboxstub_glXMakeCurrent. Is this some unimplemented functionality in the hardware accelerated driver?

The segmentation fault happens both in VB 2.2.4 and 3.0.2.

Without 3D acceleration, I can run ubigraph_server, but it's slow and uses too much CPU.

I can second that finding. Using guest Ubuntu 9.04 on Windows Vista SP1 host with VirtualBox 3.0.10. r54097 the same error occurs while using glutCreateMenu().

[FRob]

Still in 3.1.0 using guest Ubuntu 9.04 on Windows Vista SP1 host.

[FRob]

Still in 3.2.0 using guest Ubuntu 9.10 on Windows Vista SP2 host.

[Frank Mehnert]

The last released version is VBox 3.1.2, the current beta is 3.1.4.

[FRob]

Sorry, deleted one version too many :/ I'm talking about 3.1.2 where it is still segfaulting.

[Leonid Lobachev]

This crash is fixed, but the app doesn't quite work yet.

[Leonid Lobachev]

Fixed now.
