I actually meant the definition you gave: a VM with native OpenGL acceleration. I wonder if the virtualbox port to FreeBSD is likely to be able to use this at all: http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~andreslc/xen-gl/ Virtualbox + VMGL seems the most likely candidate at the moment - I'm just not sure if it's currently stable at all. xw
