| 3 | | Hi all, |
| 4 | | |
| 5 | | I have experienced the same issue / behavior - that of no 3d effects on running Arch Linux x86_64. |
| 6 | | |
| 7 | | 1) Host: Mac OS X 10.9.2 |
| 8 | | |
| 9 | | 2) Guest: Arch Linux x86_64 |
| 10 | | |
| 11 | | 3) VirtualBox 4.3.10 with guest additions |
| 12 | | |
| 13 | | I have traced the problem down to the upgrade of these packages: |
| 14 | | |
| 15 | | a) mesa 10.1.0 (link to latest => https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/mesa/) |
| 16 | | |
| 17 | | b) mesa-libgl 10.1.0 (link to latest => https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/mesa-libgl/) |
| 18 | | |
| 19 | | By downgrading and using the above package versions 3d works fine / as normal / as expected. By upgrading to any updated packages above these versions, 3d is broken. |
| 20 | | |
| 21 | | I know that Valve have been sponsoring development efforts towards mesa lately - my suspicion is that some new change has broken how mesa, opengl, and the VBox graphics driver's stack interact. |
