In any case, I'm just wondering if what I've currently set is good enough or if I'm making the machine suffer.Īny tips and or recommendations would be grand. I don't plan to download anything major onto it as I have only dedicated so much space for it and it really isn't the best environment to be doing such as is, or so I've noticed. The reason I ask this is because I only recently decided to install virtual box along with Mint, and after a few runs, I noticed that the OS would only run in the software rendering mode.Īfter countless threads and topics, I was finally able to fix the issue by enabling the 3D Acceleration option.Īfterwards, I didn't notice any out of the blue issues, but have since wondered if the default and current amount of video memory is sufficient for the purposes of playing around w/ the terminal.
Total video memory available according to the properties: 4090MB/Dedicated video memory: 2048MB Version/Edition: Windows 10 Pro (64-bit)ĬPU: AMD FX(tm)-6300 Six-Core Processor Obviously I didn't know.Ĭurrent allocated video memory: 12MB (the cap on the slider selection shown by virtual box reads 128MB). The problem is that when I get to the step where it installs the system, it says that the installation failed. Ive seen a few videos/tutorials and followed the steps. I've read on other places that it would work faster with a fixed drive. I tried to install kali linux 2.0 on VirtualBox 5.0.1.
Memory (RAM) allocated to machine: 2GB (out of the total 8GB I currently use)Īt the time of setting up the VM, I decided to create a dynamic drive instead of a fixed one. I'll list the expected additional info below:ĭistribution: Linux Mint 17.2 (64-bit) Cinnamon
Just FYI: It should be read as the following: How much video memory should I allocate to my VM? I was forced to trunk my title as it would have exceeded the max length size of the field.
