Obviously I am happy to use a VESA driver, but I guess this doesn't change a thing this happens somewhere in a network layer specific to an application.
About taint P for nvidia I can't say much, but taint C for VirtualBox definitely can affect what you are seeing.
Yeah, you've got VirtualBox. Which is a mortal sin in the kernel world. :) If you can make this happen in later chromium builds without VirtualBox, and maybe 3.5.2, then please reopen.
