VMware Preps To Push More Mainline Kernel Code: To further enhance the Linux virtualization experience with VMware products, the company is preparing to push the Virtual Machine Communication Interface and VMCI Sockets into the mainline Linux kernel...

VMware Virtual GPU Driver Gets Fake Page-Flipping: After thoroughly testing the VMware graphics driver stack yesterday and providing benchmarks, there's some new "vmwgfx" developments to report on...

VMware's Virtual GPU Driver Is Running Fast: For the past few years VMware has been improving the graphics acceleration support that is available via their virtualization platform. VMware -- through their 2008 acquisition of Tungsten Graphics -- has effectively re-written their graphics driver for their virtual "SVGA II" GPU to take advantage of the Gallium3D driver architecture, a new acceleration architecture, and many other improvements.

A Virtual Gallium3D Driver Coming For VMware: For months Sun's VirtualBox virtualization software picked up OpenGL and Direct3D acceleration support for virtualized guest operating systems, but now 2D/3D hardware-acceleration support for those running operating systems under VMware's virtualization products are imminent...

VMWare VMI Enters Kernel: In the 2.6.20 kernel we were presented with KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) virtualization, and now in the Linux 2.6.21 kernel will mark the introduction of VMWare's VMI into the Linux upstream kernel. VMWare's kernel component will allow for para-virtualized operating systems to run within virtual machines.

MCNLive Virtual City: MCNLive Virtual City is out, which is a Linux distribution that can run on a 512MB USB flash drive or CD-ROM and supports virtualization through VirtualBox OSE and a whole lot more. It also supports desktop effects through Compiz with either AIGLX or XGL. This is an interesting little distribution worth checking out.
