I think Ross meant VirtualBox is running inside E17, not the other way
around.  I wonder if he's using OpenGL or software for the compositor?
And maybe VirtualBox trying to use OpenGL caused a conflict?

For what it's worth, I regularly test my embedded EFL stuff inside Qemu
running on top of E17 with no problem.  It does not need OpenGL or
anything fancy though.

And just to offset Gustavo's bragging, my embedded EFL project runs
pretty fast on the actual x486 CPU with some crappy built in graphics
chip, and 256MB memory shared between them.  :-P
