Description Unknown 2016-06-10 18:25:57 UTC

I know it's in beta, but it should still run off the ppa in Ubuntu-based Mint, yeah?

When I try to run it, it goes through the wizard, but once it gets to the main window, Kdenlive crashes.

See attached text file with backtrace data.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Terminal command: sudo apt-add-repository ppa:kdenlive/kdenlive-master
2. Terminal command: sudo apt install kdenlive
3. Run kdenlive from terminal or application launcher
4. Go through the initial start-up wizard

Actual Results:  
Kdenlive crashes.

Expected Results:  
Kdenlive doesn't crash, but goes into the main window.

Bug discovered while using Linux Mint 18 beta x64 in Virtualbox VM

The crash happens in VirtualBox's OpenGL driver. I made a few changes this morning to copy come behavior from Shotcut in the OpenGL code. Can you try when the PPA get updated ?

If it still crashes I would like to know if Shotcut works in VirtualBox... maybe there are some OpenGL limitations...

Of course! Thanks JB.

Confirmed, the crash is in virtualbox only. running natively works fine. I'm marking this bug as resolved.
