Well the localization is English, it's just mirrored :)

Sounds like a driver bug that should be reported to SVGA3D developers.

This is a known issue and has been a problem for a while. That said, I doubt Oracle will fix it anytime soon since work on 3D acceleration in VirtualBox seems to be going at a very slow pace.

As a workaround, disable 3D acceleration in the VM and use a software OpenGL implementation.

Remember that in Godot (until 4.0), viewports are flipped on Y axis. If we really want to fix this, we can detect the GPU in use and avoid flipping the viewport if needed. This is a lot of work for little gain, though.
