VirtualBox Guest driver's shader seems faulty

[foobar]

When trying to run gnome-shell in a VirtualBox some shader functions seem to not work well. See ​https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=702827

OpenGL Warning: Assertion failed: isNewKey, file /build/buildd/virtualbox-4.2.10-dfsg/src/VBox/GuestHost/OpenGL/state_tracker/state_texture.c, line 631 OpenGL Warning: Assertion failed: isNewKey, file /build/buildd/virtualbox-4.2.10-dfsg/src/VBox/GuestHost/OpenGL/state_tracker/state_texture.c, line 631

The version of the guest additions is 4.2.10-dfsg-0ubuntu2

Most likely this issue should be solved in the next major VBox release.
Here is a trunk test build containing the fixes for you to try.

!!!NOTE: Trunk is under heavy development now and thus might not be stable, so this test build can be used for testing purposes only and can NOT be used in production environment!!'''

You will as well need to update Guest Additions with those supplied with this test build.

Windows Host: ​http://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/VirtualBox-4.2.51-86683-Win.exe

Extension pack: ​http://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-4.2.51-86685.vbox-extpack

Please give it a try and let me know how it goes.

Also please let me know if you need a test build for non-win host.

Thanks for the quick response!

But it doesn't look good.

I presume I run the guest additions that came with the VBox build you referenced. I guess so based on the new file name indicated by the debug symbols.

This should be fixed with VBox 4.3. Please give it a try and re-open the ticket if needed. Note that you'll need to update VBox Guest Additions to 4.3 as well.
