    No more 3D in vmplayer win7 guest

    On my 12.04 install with xorg-edgers I had 3D working smoothly on my vm win7 guest.

    Now on 12.10 my vmplayer 5.0.1 3D acceleration gets disabled because my host system does not support 3D in win7.
    xorg-edgers installed.

    What am I missing?

    VMPlayer 5 (and Workstation 9) appear to have reduced the ability to get 3D guest support working easily. Multiple threads in the VMware Communities forum reflect this.

      Hi Steve, yeah I saw some of those posts, but nothing really useful. Guess I'll post a question on the vmplayer forum.
