Rendering issues with the 4.14 + ngl in vmware player/virtualbox with 3d enabled
We are getting Ubuntu reports that the desktop sessions have rendering issues in Noble when using vmware player or virtualbox with the 3d acceleration enable
Example https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/open-vm-tools/+bug/2061118
The screenshots show that the wallpaper is not rendered and that gnome-initial-setup displays an empty white dialog https://launchpadlibrarian.net/724337751/Screenshot%202024-04-12%20112539.png
The content of g-i-s is rendered when focusing out the application
GTK 4.14.1 Mesa 24.0.3 The session used is a wayland one
Setting GSK_RENDERER=gl workarounds the issue. Disabling the '3d acceleration' option in the VMs also workaround the problem (using ngl)
