to bad I missed your tuto. I've already been diging into vgl doc months ago but I didn't noticed that page, and when I search recently for vgl/vboxit seems that unfortunatly google wasn't my friend... Yet I was able to get some 3D opengl acceleration on windows app, which is kind of exciting ! I haven't been able to do much more test on this for the last week since I had to work on more money making / less R&D projects (real life is harsh :-) I'll keep you informed of the result. By the way, I had some opengl test app that worked locally on virtualbox but not on vbox over vgl. I read in another post that you was offering consulting on vgl. Could you please send me more detail on my email address?
