Grayed 3D acceleration + OpenGL "0.0 Chromium 1.9"

Post by txprog »

Hi guys,

I've installed VirtualBox on Mac OSX 10.6, and imported a Windows Seven vdi from another computer to this host.
On the macosx host, i'm unable to check/uncheck 3D acceleration options : the button is grayed.

Still, when i run the Seven guest, i've 2 behavior:
- with headless mode, the opengl version is "1.1 / GDI"
- with non-headless mode, the opengl version is "0.0 Chromium 1.9"

Yes, 0.0. And it's crashing as soon as i execute any opengl command.
Is anyone know what's wrong ?

I got an idea in my head, and it reveal to be true.
You must connect a monitor on the macosx, reboot it, then you'll be able to have 3D acceleration under Seven.
(It's showing "2.1 Chomium 1" now.)
