Research direction
Start by reproducing the failure with test.py from the command line and Barmesh-scratch.ipynb in the Ubuntu 22.04 VirtualBox environment. Inspect the reported GLFW GLXBadFBConfig, missing context, and segmentation fault; done means the notebook kernel remains alive and the Polyscope window opens without those errors.

Description
I'm trying to use Polyscope on a Virtual Machine (Ubuntu 22.04 running inside an Oracle Virtualbox on Windows 10)
However on calling it from Jupyter-lab I get the following problem:
Kernel Restarting
The kernel for Documents/ROTATOR/geodesic/Barmesh-scratch.ipynb appears to have died. It will restart automatically.
So I tried doing a simple test file to just load a mesh and open a Polyscope window to show it, running from command line I get this:
(base) timbo@timbo-VirtualBox:~/Documents/ROTATOR/geodesic$ python3 test.py
GLFW emitted error: GLX: Failed to create context: GLXBadFBConfig
GLFW emitted error: Cannot set swap interval without a current OpenGL or OpenGL ES context
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
I guess it's some issue with the display being passed through the VM, any idea how to fix this?
