Hello everyone, I am new here and I apologise if I have asked this question in the wrong forum segment, Anyway, I tried installing an android emulator in my virtual box but I got the error message - "The version of opengl is too low, suggest upgrading the graphics driver." I would like to know if any one has an idea on how I can resolve this problem.
- Can I get my virtual box to actually use the real graphics drver in my actual / real laptop?
- Can I upgrade the open GL / graphics driver in my virtual box?

Hope to get some response.

A response, you'll get. A response that you like? No. Unfortunately the answer to both your questions is no. VirtualBox presents a virtual hardware (except the CPU).

What is the android emulator you're trying to use. Have you tried other ones? Have you tried Android-x86?
