[Mesa-users] Glxgears Crashes in VMware

[Brian Paul]

So you're using CentOS 6.8 in the guest now?

Did OpenGL acceleration work "out of the box" before you tried compiling 
things yourself?

I've only tested with CentOS 7 a while back and that seemed to work. 
I'm afraid I don't have time to dig into this right now.  Maybe next 
week when I'm back in my office.
