#How to check video driver linux mint install#
Then use the VM's Devices menu, "Insert Guest Additions CD Image" to insert the GAs ISO into the VM's CD drive, then run the installer.Īfter GAs install correctly, shut down the VM fully, enable 3D acceleration in the VM's Display settings, crank video RAM up to max, then start the VM again. Installing Guest Additions in Linux VMs has prerequisites, same as for installing Virtualbox on the host, see. Guest Additions provide the drivers for the Virtualbox 'video card' as well as a couple other things. It is better to have the GAs version match the installed Virtualbox version, especially if 3D acceleration is being used. If the line is not present, Guest Additions are not installed. If that line is present it will tell what version of Guest Additions is installed. Guest Additions information report: Version Open the VM's vbox.log and look for the last instance of this text: It's because Guest Additions are not installed (or incompatible Guest Additions are installed).
