Enabling 3D Acceleration for VMware on Linux

If you’re on Intel integrated graphics, there’s a good chance VMware will tell you that 3D acceleration can’t be enabled. Even if you flip the 3D acceleration switch, it still won’t work… I looked into it and it seems to be a blacklist thing — some drivers aren’t allowed to use 3D acceleration. Drop the blacklist and it works. It’s a forced override, sure, but I haven’t run into any problems.
