I'm using the nVidia binary drivers and kernel module.

Can you give the 260.19.29 version
of the NVIDIA driver a try? It's a stable version and there's a problem
report to update the nvidia driver that hasn't been committed yet. This
is what mine shows for glxinfo:
OpenGL vendor string: NVIDIA
Corporation
OpenGL renderer string: GeForce GTX 460/PCI/SSE2
OpenGL
version string: 4.1.0 NVIDIA 260.19.29
OpenGL shading language version
string: 4.10 NVIDIA via Cg compiler
That's about the only idea I have.
The opengl that your card supports is a major rev behind what mine does.
I'm not sure what version VirtualBox requires.
Sincerely,
Rusty Nejdl
