[Bug 614088] Re: unity should give an error to the user when not supported by the driver/graphic card

[Jan Claeys]

VirtualBox with 3D-support enabled (e.g. compiz with wobbly windows etc.
enabled works fine in the desktop session) fails to run unity, and
leaves the user on an empty "desktop background" when using the Netbook
session...  No warning, no message, nothing, so not all problems get
catched in a "proper" way?

Running unity from a terminal in the desktop session shows:

$ unity
OpenGL Warning: glXChooseFBConfigSGIX not implemented by Chromium
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

(Chromium is the OpenGL implementation VirtualBox uses:
http://chromium.sf.net )
