<p class="MsoNormal">Hi,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have a NVIDIA K2100M graphics card in my Windows7 host machine. The VirtualBox version is 4.3.12. I have RHEL7 installed in my VM. RHEL7 works fine. Currently the VM is setup with 2D acceleration and video capture. I have installed virtualbox
guest additions in that vm.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Here is the output of lspci which tells me that the VGA is a software/simulated Graphics Adapter. Can the VM make use of the NVIDIA K2100M card of the host machine?<o:p></o:p></p>
