WinXP SP3 Guest and OpenGL support?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



We are running Photoshop on a WinXP guest on Fedora 13 host.

Now we want to install a Photoshop Filter suite named OnOne
PhotoTools which requires OpenGL 2.x support (even though
Photoshop runs fine without it).

Even though OpenGL is supported on the host (glxinfo output)
inside the VM no opengl is active (checked with config tool
speccy http://www.piriform.com/speccy - on native notebook
running ATI graphics and native WinXP SP3 opengl is active).

QUESTIONS:

How can we get OpenGL 2.x enabled on the WinXP guest?

If its not yet supported is it on the qemu/kvm roadmap?
