3D under vms is still just on the horizon and not mainstream yet.

That said, vmware workstation (the non free - in either sense version)
has had "experimental" support for 3D and the new vmware "fusion" on
macs has 3d support which appears to work well.

In both cases, as Volker says, this is support for a vm to use the
host's 3d hardware. So if the underlying hardware doesn't support 3d
then the vm will not either.
