I am using Ubuntu 18.04 and the video memory is 4G.
I want to make the video memory 2G in the visualbox.
Why do you only support up to 256MB?
At least 1G of video memory is required.
When developing version 6.0, set the video memory to 1 GB or more.
I want to increase video memory to 256MB or more.

The VRAM is not memory from your GPU, it's RAM from your host. If you have a program that requires 2 GB of VRAM, chances are that it's going to fail in the next check that it does.
The GPU inside a VM is circa 1995-2000, no 2 GB GPUs then...

Native Hardware is the best and only solution for programs needing much graphic performance/resources.

This has nothing to do with the beta. Please stick to beta/RC discussion in this forum section.
