[ 21.016] (II) VBoxVideo(0): VirtualBox guest additions video driver
version 4.1.18
If this were a video driver problem you would want to confirm that by
varying xorg.conf between vboxvideo and vesa, and using 'X -retro' from
runlevel 3 to see if you get the ugly black/white stipple. If only one
driver works, the other is at fault; if both work, something about the
rest of the session is to blame.
But it's almost certainly not a driver problem, since if you can see the
spinning cursor then the driver is working and it's the session busily
doing nothing.
