Steps taken to reproduce bug
- Launch Google Chrome in Linux guest virtual machine
- Navigate to Gmail
- Google Chrome freezes after a couple of seconds
This only happens when I have the "Enable 3D Acceleration" box checked.
Environment Details - Host
Windows 8.1 (64-bit)
VirtualBox 4.3.0 r89960
12GB RAM
Environment Details - Guest
Xubuntu 13.10 (64-bit)
VirtualBox Guest Additions 4.3.0 r89960
6327MB RAM
I have attached the following in the zip file
- VirtualBox Log
- Output of VBoxManage showvminfo
- Output in terminal when I run google-chrome on my guest OS (Xubuntu)
The two ways I can get around this for now are
- Disable 3D Acceleration
- Launch google-chrome in Xubuntu with the following switch "--blacklist-accelerated-compositing"
Also, my host OS keeps crashing with the following error message "CRITICAL_STRUCTURE_CORRUPTION". But looking at the other thread on this forum, it seems like you guys have fixed this with 4.3.1 r90098. Anyway, will be great if you guys can fix this OpenGL (??) problem....I kept thinking it was something to do with my guest OS and I've installed/uninstalled 3 distros (Linux Mint, Ubuntu, Xubuntu) over the past 5 hours only to realize it had something to do with VirtualBox.
Thanks,
