The new mesa libraries (10.1.3) broke 3D Acceleration.

[Malus]

Hi, the new mesa libraries update (10.1.3) has broke the 3D acceleration in ubuntu 14.04/Mint 17 and derivates . The issue seems specifically with VBox. Before the updates everything worked correctly, but once updated to version 10.1.3. the 3D acceleration in linux mint 17-cinnamon- and ubuntu 14.04 is broken. In linux Mint 17 -cinnamon-appears and pop-up :" Running in Software in rendering Mode". I think is a issue between new mesa libraries and VBox.

Best Regards.

Hm, I wonder if this is why I can't get 3D acceleration to work with Ubuntu 14.04 atm.
Could be caused by me temporarily disabling it earlier, but hard to verify the cause at this point.
Even when 3D acceleration did 'work', I still had other issues with the screen not being properly redrawed/rendered.

Virtualbox ticket #12941 seems to be related. (Sorry, can't post URLs, you'll have to google it).
There is updated Guest Additions image in comment #36, installing GA from it fixed this issue for me.

Thanks for the heads-up, actually installing that as we speak. Will see how this fixes things.

The referred 4.3.13 guest additions did the trick for me Linux Mint 17 guest, Mint 16 host. Intel graphics card.

I have not yet tried the latest build, but one of the later ones did not solve the issue unfortunately. Might check that out at some point.

I am using VB 4.3.16 (on Windows 8.1) with ubuntu 14.04 as guest. I am still getting this error, which, as far as I can tell from searching the web, is bug 12941, and which in turn is listed as fixed in 4.3.14.

(for example, when I type in /usr/lib/nux/unity_support_test -p, or glxgears). I am also getting the same output from Qt, which is my real interest.

Any pointers? Also, if someone can confirm that they are seeing the same problem on 4.3.16, that could save a lot of investigation time.

Getting the same thing with the 4.3.17 test build and GA on Mint 17 VM and Win 7 Host. As an additional problem, my VM will also crash on shutdown.

Thank you - my VM also crashes on shutdown.

Seems like this has been an issue for a while now.

Not sure if you want to add your info to the list. When I perused the tickets I didn't see any new info - at this point it might just be a matter of the devs finding time to get to it.

Not sure what version of VB you're running but I couldn't get 3D Acceleration to work until 4.3.16 & 4.3.17. However, before upgrading (and install the associated Guest Additions), keep in mind that a) some people are having problems with those versions and b) you might start seeing the aborted shutdowns.

Although I'm getting the same warnings as milans, 3D does appear to work in my VM.

I am using matlab to plot figures and I can't because it experiences low-level graphics error.
Need your help ! Would downgrading mesa help ? if so how can I do that ?
Thanks

I'm having this same issue with a Linux Mint 17 guest on a Win 7 host...

Running VB 4.3.18 r96516 with 4.3.18 guest additions.

If 3D acceleration is enabled, shutdown of guest always results in "aborted" status with an error dialog on the host titled "VirtualBox.exe - Application Error" - The instruction at 0x<varying 8 digit hex address> referenced memory at 0x00000010. The memory could not be written. Click OK to terminate the program

Display adapter is an ATI R9 270 with the latest catalyst drivers (v14.9)....

Please advise if there are any details that might be useful.

Note: VBoxSVC log has nothing pertinent
In the VBox.log, there are a few errors that might be pertinent, and here's a sample from the startup:

00:00:01.301632 supR3HardenedErrorV: supR3HardenedScreenImage/LdrLoadDll: rc=VERR_LDRVI_UNSUPPORTED_ARCH fImage=1 fProtect=0x0 fAccess=0x0 \Device\HarddiskVolume2\Windows\System32\aticfx64.dll: WinVerifyTrust failed with hrc=CERT_E_CHAINING on '\Device\HarddiskVolume2\Windows\System32\aticfx64.dll'

edit: 11/24

4.3.20 behaves the same as 4.3.18 did, which isn't much of a surprise, as this issue wasn't mentioned in the changelog...

2nd edit: 11/25

It turns out I didn't actually have the Catalyst 14.9 drivers installed after all, and once I installed them, the problem is resolved! Sorry for the false alarm
