Hi Balbuzard, just seen your posting. I wanted to run my whole desktop in a VM so I could keep the HE as clean as possible.

I gave up.

I have since needed to run a heavy 32 bit 3D application on my 64 bit system. The way I achieved this was to use "schroot" to create a 32 bit container that is still part of the host, rather than a separate virtual machine. With proper configuration this accesses the hardware no problems at all.

Drop me a line if interested and I'll give you some pointers but it isn't an OpenVZ solution (sorry guys!).

I would still like to get a VPS with direct control over the graphics hardware to work, but I'm happy for now with how I have things.
