VBoxGuestAdditions 5.2.22 3d acceleration not working

Post by ilyalesnoi »

System environment:
Host OS: Windows8 Pro 64 bit (all updates)
Guest OS: Debian 8.11 (kernel 3.16.0-4, all updates from stable branch 8.11)

after update from 5.2.20 to 5.2.22 and apply VBoxGuestAdditions.iso - 3d acceleration stopped working.
If roll back GuestAdditions to 5.2.20 (but save Vbox version 5.2.22) - 3d acceleration working again.

Does anyone have a similar problem?

Yes, I've had the same issue.

Windows 10 Pro Host
Linux Mint 19 (4.15.0.39 kernel)

After installing VBox 5.2.22 & then Guest Additions, Cinnamon reported that it was running in software rendering mode.

I also had to backout to 5.2.20 guest additions to fix the issue

With Guest Additions 5.2.23 build revision 126581 the HW acceleration is working again.

I'm going to lock this topic.

These are low quality reports with no logs to back them up, plus we already have a topic for discussing issues with 5.2.22.
