Have you installed the latest graphics driver for the virtual machine? Is there any 3D/OpenGL settings you can play with for the virtual machine?

Hi Freesurfer folks,

I’ve recently started using an Ubuntu virtual machine on PC host, and have noticed a problem in both Ubuntu 14 and 16 (but not 12) with Freeview. When a freeview window is opened, the black screen for displaying volumes/surfaces is necessarily at the front of the screen (i.e., nothing can be viewed in front of it). This makes viewing menu options and selecting volumes difficult and annoying, as well as working with other applications such as the terminal which cannot be placed over the freeview screen.

I’m wondering if others have experienced this or know of a solution?

Thanks, Nick
