[gentoo-user] vmware opengl

[Matt Harrison]

Hi list,

I have to run windows most of the time on my main desktop for work 
reasons, but every now and then I install a gentoo guest on vmware to 
see how the latest DMs are coming along.

The current KDE4 is vastly improved from last time, extremely responsive 
and everything is really nice...except that I cannot get opengl working 
for compositing.

The virtual machine has acceleration enabled, everything relevant has 
opengl compiled. I'm not very experienced with X/opengl/etc so I'm not 
sure what else needs to be done.

glxinfo gives me:

name of display: :0
Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig

I'm not sure if it's even possible to get opengl working here...but I 
assume it is as a mythbuntu vm works perfectly displaying live tv etc.

Anyway, any tips on this subject appreciated. It's hard to find anything 
on google related to this.

Many thanks
