Description:
For some reason 3D acceleration fails in VirtualBox guests.
3D acceleration is checked in virtual machine settings, together with 64MB video memory. Both host and guest run Arch 64bit.

glxgears gives 100FPS compared to >1000FPS in host.
vboxvideo is loaded and correct version is installed.

Additional info:
host: virutalbox-4.3.14-1
guest: virtualbox-guest-modules 4.3.14-1
virtualbox-guest-utils 4.3.14-1

Are the guest modules loaded in the guest OS? What's the output of `lsmod | grep vbox`?

Is your 3D accel was working with a previous version of vbox?

Do you meet all the requirement here? https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch04.html#guestadd-3d

Note that 3D accel is experimental. I suggest you to report this directly with upstream.

I didn't test with previous versions.
I meet all VB requirements. OK I will try to work it with VB.
Could somebody confirm 3D guest working or not on Arch?
