  • Ticket #5216 – Description

    initial v1  
    11Steps to reproduce the issue:
    2 1. Start guest VM with 3D acceleration and RDP server enabled
    3 2. If not already installed, install guest additions selecting Direct3D support and reboot VM
    4 3. Install GoogleEarth in your guest VM.  At this point you should be able to start it in both OpenGL and DirectX modes (you can change this by going to Tools->Options in GoogleEarth).
    5 4. Shutdown GoogleEarth.
    6 5. Login to your guest from MS RDP client and attempt to start GoogleEarth.  You will get black screen where Globe should appear in GoogleEarth.
    7 6. Shut down GoogleEarth and disconnect RDP client
    8 7. Attempt to start GoogleEarth again from console.  You should see that attempt to start GoogleEarth in Direct3X mode will fail.  OpenGL mode will still work.
     2 1. Start guest VM with 3D acceleration and RDP server enabled
     3 2. If not already installed, install guest additions selecting Direct3D support and reboot VM
     4 3. Install !GoogleEarth in your guest VM.  At this point you should be able to start it in both OpenGL and DirectX modes (you can change this by going to Tools->Options in !GoogleEarth).
     5 4. Shutdown !GoogleEarth.
     6 5. Login to your guest from MS RDP client and attempt to start !GoogleEarth.  You will get black screen where Globe should appear in !GoogleEarth.
     7 6. Shut down !GoogleEarth and disconnect RDP client
     8 7. Attempt to start !GoogleEarth again from console.  You should see that attempt to start !GoogleEarth in Direct3X mode will fail.  OpenGL mode will still work.
