Bug 255385: emulators/virtualbox-ose Linbux (Mint) graphics extremely slow and
not accelerated
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=255385



--- Description ---
I am running VB 6.1.20 on FreeBSD 12.2-STABLE with a Linux Mint 20 system.
Guest additions are installed. I have tried to set the display driver to
VBOXSVGA, but it seems to refuse to load it and runs VMSVGA. glxgears runs at
2-8 fps. It depends on how busy the CPU is, so it appears that acceleration is
not used. 

Is this all I can expect? Makes graphics pretty limited. On Windows 10, I can
set and run VBOXSVGA.
