I don't know which driver VirtualBox uses, and have not applied any updates or installed any packages other than those from the Fedora repos. Since many people run early Rawhide on VB, I was hoping this was a common enough problem that someone on this list would immediately recognize what the problem was, but it seems that I'm the only one having it. I can't get Xorg.log output since after attempting to start X, it's impossible to get a login prompt any more, even on a VT. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAkpXr24ACgkQ0pavuo9EGO9uqACggrjlg5Nk67P/xzj4Tipb9Nui blwAn1CPsItczaZO8oSMUqvKpEV8Yorl =QzZ+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
