Description walt 2015-03-07 17:38:57 UTC

After upgrading to xf86-video-virtualbox-4.3.24, the vbox linux guest has no 3D acceleration and apps that require it won't run, e.g. gnome3.

This is an upstream bug that has already been reported to virtualbox.org (Bug #13933) 

Reproducible: Always

Comment 1 walt 2015-03-17 11:53:51 UTC

Unfortunately this same bug still exists in 4.3.26.

Please reopen if this is still a problem on current versions.  Upstream's bug report is also asking for feedback if this is still a problem.

Comment 3 walt 2017-09-01 20:51:32 UTC

This bug report is obsolete.  Fixed upstream.
