(names in alphabetical order and probably missed a few, sorry > for that!) I've run into a problem trying to get the 3D acceleration working. Enabling the checkbox in my WinXP VM causes the VM to crash immediately on startup with: (2 ~): VirtualBox Type Manifest File: /home/jandrese/.VirtualBox/xpti.dat nsNativeComponentLoader: autoregistering begins. nsNativeComponentLoader: autoregistering succeeded nNCL: registering deferred (0) ###!!!

The VM works fine if I turn off the 3D support checkbox, so this isn't a showstopper, but it is something I would like to get working if I could. -- \__/ Jason Andresen -- My opinions are my own. \__/19\__/1A\__/1B\__/ /21\ That's the thing about people who think they hate computers. /2C\ \__/ What they really hate is lousy programmers. __/3B\__/ /41\ -- Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle in "Oath of Fealty" /4B\__/4C\ \__/51\__/52\__/53\__/54\__/55\__/56\__/57\__/58\__/59\__/5A\__/5B\__/
