Yeah. I have tried to install guest addition twice to test with 3D support and without 3D support. And both cases are the same result. No effect appears. And FreeBSD VirtualBox looks like not to support 3D feature yet. > What graphics hardware do you use? I have an Nvidia 8800 GTS.

The 'Option "AccelMethod" "EXA"' are affected for intel and radeon driver, not for nvidia. > I am new to this option, so that is all I can surmise. > > Sean > -- > scf@FreeBSD.org -- Daichi GOTO 81-42-316-7945 | daichi@ongs.co.jp | http://www.ongs.co.jp LinkedIn: http://linkedin.com/in/daichigoto
