      I know vbox is not "supported" but for anyone who can't
        dedicate a box to linux, it's the primary way to do testing.
        Fedora 19 boots on EFI baremetal, and in vbox set to BIOS mode.
        F19 technically boots in a vbox VM set with the EFI option on,
        but it fails to start gdm. I've started this thread as I'm not
        sure what the problem really is, but seems maybe more vbox or
        vbox's EFI than Fedora because of the "no screens found"
        message.

      Posted there dmesg, Xorg.0.log, lspci, and systemctl status
        gdm output.
      

    Did not virtualbox or one of it's initscripts create it's own
    xorg.conf file which had to be moved or deleted ( mv
    /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.old)  since probably what
    Fedora 9 ?

    
    In anycase this is definitely Xorg error so try fiddling with
    related grapichs driver settings in virtualbox...
