Yes, because it is broken the upstream guest-additions install script also no longer installs it. With this in LD_LIBRARY_PATH gnome will no longer work in Wayland mode. > 2- Reading VBoxOGLRun.sh we got [1] , shouldn't we enable that as system > wide , by default in all system ? The opengl passthru code is not all that great: 1) It provides a very old version of opengl, 2.1, many apps including e.g. webGL in firefox will not work with it 2) It makes any GL rendered surfaces being always on top 3) It does work with gnome-shell on top of X11 but the always on top thing then breaks running any OpenGL apps on top of gnome-shell, when you do that everything becomes horribly slow and the window gets no window decorations TL;DR: the OpenGL passthru support is not in a state where enabling it system-wide is a good idea. This is also why it is disabled by default if you create a new vm. > My plan is update Vbox packages with 5.1.30 in all branches and after that > begin to pack 5.2 in rawhide and F27, we / I may start thinking in drop > guest-additions in RPMFusion packages or something like that and plan to > coordinate the existence of the 2 src.rpms in repos. > > 3- Fedora kernels for f27 or rawhide already have vboxguest kernel modules ? > or do we need still enable it ? (this part still not studied, but for > testing we need one kernel with the modules ... ) As Neal already replied vboxvideo is in place I'm still waiting for upstream review of my v2 patch to add vboxguest support upstream. I will go and ping some people about this. Regards, Hans -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
