I'll keep looking into why this is happening for me since it apparently shouldn't. Tested with Xubuntu 16.04 with kernel version 4.4.0-77 in VMWare Fusion 8.5.6 at 1920x1200 This may be a problem with the combination of kernel version (4.4.0-77 in my case) and virtualHW.version (see ref. Find where TOOLCHAINSVERSION was declared in the file and change. Edit the first line to match your NDK location. The set-up: MacBook Pro Mid 2015 15-inch, running VMware Fusion Professional Version 8.5.6 (5234762), with image of ubuntu ubuntu-16.04.2-desktop-amd64.iso.

Seeing this, I found a workaround that set the version of OpenGL used to 2.2 instead of 3 and that allowed me to continue running my program (I realize the initial question posed remains unsolved). This release of VMware Fusion is a free upgrade for all VMware. Is this what it should be? If not, how would I go about updating Mesa? Although my friend who has the exact same laptop was able to run it with an older version of VMware that supporter OpenGL 2.2. I ran glxinfo | grep "OpenGL version and my Mesa3D shows up as 11.2.0.

So, if you’re on Fusion 8.1.1, you’re going to be able to upgrade to the latest Fusion with full support for macOS Sierra and. While VirtualBox does not support the M1s underlying ARM architecture, VMWare Fusions Linux support for Apple silicon. Apart from the aforementioned software, M1 users do not currently have many options to run Linux on their machines. Thank you so much for taking time to test this scenario. This year we are delivering Fusion 8.5 and Fusion 8.5 Pro, and the big surprise is this: It’s a free upgrade for all current-version customers. Parallels Desktop 17 also offers Ubuntu support on M1 Macs, but the price starts at 79.99. Wow I'm blown away at the quality of the replies from this forum. You can find the related information about Mesa3D from: The Mesa 3D Graphics Library

So just want to confirm with you, have you updated the latest Mesa 3D driver in your Ubuntu guest? To enable OpenGL 3.3 support the Mesa3D driver is required. The goal of this guide is to provide a means to create a simple virtualized Openstack environment running on a single physical host such as a Mac Pro.

There are many advantages including cost, flexibility in deployment models, and ease of use to name a few. I tried with Nvidia GPU (GT 650M) and AMD GPU (FirePro D700) and both of them worked good. VMWare Fusion provides an excellent host layer for functional testing. On the Ubuntu 15.10 and later versions guest OS, when you replace open-vm-tools with the VMware Tools version bundled with VMware Fusion, VMware Tools may not work as expected. VMware Fusion 8 Pro delivers improved usability for advanced users, more control for IT and cloud environments for development and QA. I've just tried to run GazeboSim 7 in Ubuntu 16.04 guest running in Fusion 8.5.3 and I was able to launch the application without problem. Fusion could crash when you attempt to create a remote virtual machine on vCenter Server 5.5.
