[Chimera-users] On installation of Chimera linux version

[Greg Couch]

It works for me.  Just much slower than running natively on Windows.  
Make sure you have 3D acceleration turned on in VirtualBox in the 
Display settings for your virtual machine.  You also need a decent 
graphics card on the native system for VirtualBox to use.  I have a 
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970.  I've attached a screenshot of a CentOS 8 
VirtualBox VM running Chimera 1.14 after fetching the "EMDB & fit PDBs" 
1048 example.

That said, if Chimera works in Windows, just use Windows :-)
