Someone at - it support 3D (Gnome3) to work in Debian Wheezy (or Jessie) under 11.0 Workstation?

When I was running 9.0 Workstation that has not supported 7.x Debian, I was able to get 3D support working by jumping through hoops that is easy to find by a google search (which one on this forum very is there a current guide to enable 3D acceleration in Debian invited?), however, try as I might I can't get the same job under 11.0 Workstation which takes officially supported Debian 7.x.

If I follow the steps documented, I get to a point where I can run the following command:

GNOME-shell--replace

And Gnome3 loads, however, it is less stable, in fact quite unusable, while it has worked flawlessly in WS9.

I'm assuming that thexserver-xorg-video-vmware driver just doesn't work well with WS11 yet, but that's based on not very much Linux experience (maybe the driver is not the issue?), so I am interested in the thoughts of others. For now I have abandoned this dream.

Cheers.

To read the release notes. I just noticed that by reading the notes of 11.1 version.

3D rendering is not available in some operating systems, if you use the hardware virtual version 11

If you are upgrading a hardware virtual machine virtual version 10 or 11, you may lose some 3D features in the virtual machine.

Workaround: operating systems for Windows, VMware Tools upgrade to the latest version, which comes with 11 workstations. For Linux clients, only the following distributions are currently supported for version 11 of virtual hardware:

  • 14.04 of Ubuntu LTS and above
  • 12.04.5 of Ubuntu LTS and above
  • Fedora 20 recent updates and more

For other Linux distributions and versions, if you plan to use the 3D feature, downgrade the version of the virtual equipment to 10.

So I lowered my virtual material 10, repeated that the hoop jumps in to re - build the xserver-xorg-video-vmware guy (Debian Wheezy) and now I'm all set.

I noticed a little backward that Jessie seems to work initially with Hardware version 11, but there are currently only another question which makes using Jessie in VMware is not worth the effort, unless you're willing to cherry pick a few problems upstream and stop more pending.

    After the 8.1 update widows 8, HP support Assistant has stopped working.  I uninstalled and reinstalled several times, and nothing changes.  I checked that all the drivers are up to date.

    It's going to be an HP update, if so how long will they take?

    Unfortunately Sanctioner if they don't work, I don't have any other solutions.

    It seems to be a compatibility issue, and you will have to wait until a version is available on your download page. HP seems out 8.1 software for your computer as it becomes available.

    For some unknown reason, HP Support Assistant has stopped working. I noticed that the large taskbar icon had disappeared.

    I tried to run the program just out of curiosity. "HP Support Assistant has stopped working. A problem caused the blocking of the program works properly... "etc. It is reproducible. The program does not start.

    So, I tried to uninstall in Control Panel of. It seems to start to uninstall, but then I get an error message. "Error 1316 a network error occurred trying to read the file C:\windows\Installer\HP support Assistant.msi" when I click "OK" it cancels. This is also reproducible.

    I tried to download the software again from HP: sp64126.exe I accept the license agreement and moving forward. I get a message that files already exist and I want to overwrite all or not. Matter of INo I choose, nothing happens. The installation window simply disappears and I'm at square one.

    Windows is fully updated. I use Norton Intertent security 21 - fully implemented to date.

    I solved this on my own. HP has a Recovery Manager installed on my system [search---> Recovery Manager] and aid that allowed me to reinstall just this software from my hard drive recovery partition. Very cool!
