[vbox-dev] Announcement: VirtualBox 5.0.17 r106108 Guest Additions update for Linux guests - update to r106114

Hi Sergio:

Can you follow up on what you did here? I think I'm at a similar spot.

I copied in my vboxvideo.so by hand since the installer didn't seem to 
do it, that got it loading in the Xorg.0.log file:
[   472.172] (II) LoadModule: "vboxvideo"
[   472.172] (II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/vboxvideo.so
[   472.172] (II) Module vboxvideo: vendor="Oracle Corporation"
[   472.172]  compiled for 1.15.0, module version = 1.0.1
[   472.172]  Module class: X.Org Video Driver
[   472.172]  ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 15.0
[   472.172] (**) Load address of symbol "VBOXVIDEO" is 0x7f6b3c7362e0

Now I get a black screen trying to load and at the end of my Xorg.0.log 
I have:

[   472.184] (II) VBoxVideo(0): kernel driver found, not loading.
[   472.184] (II) UnloadModule: "vboxvideo"
[   472.184] (II) UnloadSubModule: "vgahw"

[   472.184] (II) Unloading fb
[   472.184] (EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.
[   472.184] (EE)
Fatal server error:
[   472.184] (EE) no screens found(EE)
[   472.184] (EE)


I think this lines up with where you were, but I'm not sure what you did 
to fix it.

Any help is MASSIVELY appreciated!

Thanks.
Jim
