3D functionality — at Initial Version

Description

I tried to use OGRE (http://www.ogre3d.org/) in VirtualBox since you claim to support 3d features and I wanted to try out this combination for a research demonstrator project. I received the following exception:

OGRE EXCEPTION(3:RenderingAPIException): No GLX FBConfig support on your display in GLXGLSupport::GLXGLSupport at /home/student/ogre/RenderSystems/GL/src/GLX/OgreGLXGLSupport.cpp (line 787)

This bug occurred when I tried the SampleBrowser which is part of the Ogre distribution:

$ ./SampleBrowser Creating resource group General Creating resource group Internal Creating resource group Autodetect SceneManagerFactory for type 'DefaultSceneManager' registered.

Loading library /home/student/ogre/build/lib/RenderSystem_GL Installing plugin: GL RenderSystem OpenGL Rendering Subsystem created. < Here exception occurs >

Although I am unsure of that you can interpret this, my question is if a) this is a bug? b) if it is not a bug, then do you plan to support this "GLX FBConfig" in the future?

Essentially, I want to use Gazebo (a robot environment 3D simulator based on OGRE) in a dynamic deployment profile of the demonstrator we are constructing. The potential performance penalty of using it on top of VirtualBox may be prohibitive, but I am currently investigating possibilities.

I attache the vbox.log
