Ticket #19028, comment 20
v6 v7 17 17 I moved for the Host from Ubuntu 19.04 to Ubuntu 19.10 and thus from Linux 5.0 to Linux 5.3. At the same time I had to move from Virtualbox 6.0.12 to Virtualbox 6.0.14, because of the 6.0.14 support for Linux 5.3. The problems with the 3D garbling appeared after those changes. So on one hand I have the sloppy tendency to blame everything on the VBox changes I needed after the upgrade to Linux 5.3. On the other hand it seems that we already had a problem probably related to DirectX-9 three weeks ago. 18 18 19 I expected that say during the upgrades needed to go from Linux 5.0 to 5.1 to 5.2 to 5.3, somebody accidentalityintroduced some issues related to a difference between Microsoft DirectX-9 interfaces and its VBox replacements/adaptations. Remember I did run those VMs with 3D acceleration for Aero without having DirectX-9 installed for many years. There is also a problem between Virtualbox dll's and DirectX dll's, which has been detected by an improved installer for 6.1.0. That installer, that does not give me a choice any more, which versions of 3D acceleration I want (Aero or experimental).19 I expected that say during the upgrades needed to go from Linux 5.0 to 5.1 to 5.2 to 5.3, somebody introduced some issues related to a difference between Microsoft DirectX-9 interfaces and its VBox replacements/adaptations.

Unfortunately without warning us sufficiently in the change log.
