Hey all,
There's a development program I use that's only available under Windows and it uses OpenGL, and I was wondering if there were any Virtual Machines with accelerated OpenGL support?
I've tried VMWare, but it seems to just fallback to a software mode.
Virtualbox didn't even seen to have accelerated 2d, 16 colors at 800x600 res under windows 2000.
Haven't yet tried Parallels, but it's not in the feature list so I doubt it.
Is it possible to get accelerated openGL in a VM? And with good performance? (I tried out vmware's directx accleration and 3d performance seemed to be at best 1/10th of native, so I'm hoping openGL fairs better if it's supported anywhere)
