Anyone noticing xschem hanging virtualbox? Usually on a middle click or drag. It's happened to me about 5 times today and I have to just reset the VM. Just installing a new VM to see if that's the issue

Experienced similar thing in hyperv too

I just installed a new image and the same thing happens
looking on the internet, advice is to turn of 3d acceleration, which I've just done
seems to have solved it for me

I was about to write that. In general in VMs first thing to try is disable GPU accelerators.

Virtual machines hanging due to emulated or pass-through GPU 3D graphics is kinda a constant of the universe, like ℏ, c, π, k, i. I had these issues 15 years ago either with Vmware and Virtualbox. Constants never change. Some developers / users call these things "_forever bugs_".
