[Silverblue 35] 3D Acceleration option suddenly gone. VM which had it set before crash on startup #68

Closed Mershl closed 2 years ago

Mershl commented 2 years ago

Description

Updated an SB35 machine today (7 days worth of updates). Noticed that many previously working VMs in Gnome Boxes (from flathub) were crashing on startup. All affected VMs had 3D acceleration enabled. The option is no longer shown in the Properties pane for any VM.

Gnome Boxes logs:

Affected VMs (that had 3D acceleration enabled before) log: sb35_gnome_boxes_3d_accel_crash.txt

Workaround

Setting the accel3d parameter manually to "no" allows VMs to boot again.

      <model type="virtio" heads="1" primary="yes">
        <acceleration accel3d="yes"/>   // -> setting this to "no"
      </model>

+1 on this, I don't see any 3d acceleration option using the GNOME Boxes flatpak on Silverblue 35

1player commented 2 years ago

I can see the 3d acceleration option as of 7 Apr 2022, though I'm not sure it's actually doing anything. This issue can probably be closed.

Can confirm. The issue is no longer reproduciable after upgrading to Fedora 36 and Gnome Boxes 42.0 (from flathub).
