Long story short, Nemo requires 3d acceleration which doesn't work in VirtualBox. I have patches to make Mer work default with LLVMpipe, but the problem is that this currently doesn't work too nicely on ARM devices due to a LLVM issue.
If you were to for instance pop up a qmlviewer instead, it'd work fine, but since we're starting a GLESv2/EGL compositor, that obviously doesn't work. Ancient LLVMpipe using image can be found at http://releases.merproject.org/~carsten/meego-nemo-handset-i586-testing-0.20111128.3.CE.2011-12-01.2-1.2.90.20111212.1054.iso > > BTW: do you know how to extract trace from starting linux / nemo in > VirtualBox virtual machine? Than I would paste here the whole trace. ctrl-alt-f2 (in VBox, ctrl=host), log in, 'dmesg' is a good start 'systemctl disable uxlaunch.service' helps the session restarting. > > Host: Ubuntu 10.04 32-bit > VirtualBox: 4.1.8 > > thanks+cheers > simon:)
