Hi,
General Dynamics sun ray devices (all meteor platforms) support exactly
this.
The software distribution includes VirtualGL and a plugin
that streams the 3D output to the DTU. When you run VirtualBox
under VGL it uses the 3D hardware. The performance will depend
on the connectivity out to the client but it should be better
than you are seeing with VNC.
It wont work with Oracle Sun Ray devices though.

Hi there,
thanks a lot for the support . I will go through the link that you
have sent. Though i have tried it already and the vgl literature says
that it should "just" work. but it doesnt. I used a Sun Ultra 27
machine with 12gig ram and an nvidia graphics engine for the test
purpose. The glxspheres bench mark that is shipped with vgl gave a
stunning 1500fps on the console, 150 - 200 fps on vnc and just 2 - 4
on a thin client :( :(
however on second thoughts (after going through the vid ) i am
wondering if i did everything right !!!! can you guide me in a little
detail . may be there is something that i am missing . i would highly
appreciate any help since i am in a bit of a fix .

You should give plain old regular virtualgl a try. May meet your needs.

Hi Ivar,
Not all the pieces are in place to make that suggestion work seamlessly
today, but I believe Oracle understands the benefit of such a solution
and
the value of having it work seamlessly with it's desktop virtualization
offerings.
It would be very nice to be able to put a few 3D render engines to a
server and have vbox use those.. They wouldn't even need to be the
highest
end cards so power draw wouldn't be too much of a problem.
