Because I'm paranoid, I update my virtualbox ~amd64-gentoo-guest machine every |
2 |
day *before* I update my (real hardware) "production" machine. (The definition |
3 |
of "production" is left as an exercise for the reader.) |

Not long ago I noticed that the vbox guest machine failed to start a gnome |
6 |
session because "3D hardware support" is not available on the guest machine. |

To make a very long story short, I downgraded the xorg-server on the gentoo |
9 |
guest from 1.16.0 to 1.15.1, and now gnome3 is happy again. |
10 |
|
11 |
Techie detail for nerds only: /usr/libexec/gnome-session-check-accelerated |
12 |
returns an error message with xorg-server-1.16.0, but works normally with |
13 |
xorg-server-1.15.1. |

Has anyone else seen the same behavior? |
