Description
When trying to use VB 3.0.0 r49315 on my (K)unbuntu 9.04 (jaunty) x86_64 (aka amd64) system, I hardly see anything because most of the guest OS (e.g. Windows XP) is opaque. Net result is that VB is unsuable with radeonhd X11 driver (with enabled DRI, 3d support, accelerated).
In contrast, if I'm using the radeon X11 driver (without DRI (?), no 3d support, but accelerated), the display looks all right. In this case, it is no problem to use the VB guest OS.
I trying to add some screenshots of this...

Did you mean to say transparent rather than opaque? If so this is probably a duplicate of #3095, and the workaround there (starting VBox as
should help.
