Why do GNOME virtual Machines freeze?

Hello, i am having issues with gnome VMs . They freeze when i sometimes click stuff and something needs to load. I even gave the vm 3GB of my gpus memory and 8GB ram and good CPU config

Hi tr4p,

 

Could you provide more info re the issue? vmware.log and mksSandbox.log (if running with sandboxed renderer) from the VM folder would be a good start. Also see if your guest is using 3D acceleration -- the output from 'glxinfo -B' from a guest terminal would tell that.

 

Regards,

Martin

@krastevmI have a similar problem that started fairly recently. Disabling 3d acceleration fixes the issue. See my attached logs.
