[[Solved] Problems with Funtoo in VirtualBox]

Hello, everyone,

I'm running Funtoo as a guest system with GNOME in VirtualBox.
After installing 'virtualbox-guest-additions'

emerge app-emulation/virtualbox-guest-additions
rc-update add virtualbox-guest-additions
usermod -G vboxsf,vboxguest -a peter
reboot

and subsequent restart of the Funtoo guest system, I can log into GNOME and have full screen (1920x975).
I can move the mouse pointer, but I can't click it, e.g. 'Start menu' or 'Shut down', no click responds.
However, the system runs in the background.
I have the behavior both with and without 3D-acceleration of the graphics adapter in the VirtualBox settings.

Before installing the 'virtualbox-guest-additions' I was able to work in windowed mode in GNOME without any problems.

How can I solve the problem?

Kind regards,
Sabaton

#patch.conf

Section "Device"
       Identifier      "Device0"
       Driver         "modesetting"
EndSection 


cp patch.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/

The problem could be solved in this way.

Kind regards,

[[solved] Problems with GNOME (X-Server) in VirtualBox]

Hello, everyone,

I installed Funtoo as a guest system in VirtualBox.

I have the Funtoo installation according to the instructions https://www.funtoo.org/Install/Introduction

:	
ego profile mix-in +gfxcard-vmware

so far through.
I'm working through GNOME following the guide https://www.funtoo.org/GNOME_First_Steps#A_few_finishing_touches.

root # emerge -auDN @world
root # emerge gnome

root # rm /etc/motd

/etc/conf.d/xdm
# We always try and start X on a static VT. The various DMs normally default
# to using VT7. If you wish to use the xdm init script, then you should ensure
# that the VT checked is the same VT your DM wants to use. We do this check to
# ensure that you haven't accidentally configured something to run on the VT
# in your /etc/inittab file so that you don't get a dead keyboard.
CHECKVT=7

# What display manager do you use ?
# NOTE: If this is set in /etc/rc.conf, that setting will override this one.
DISPLAYMANAGER="gdm"

root # rc-update add dbus default
root # rc-update add elogind default

root # reboot

root # /etc/init.d/xdm start

Unfortunately I only have a black window with a blinking cursor!

Think
/etc/portage/make.conf

USE="initramfs"

MAKEOPTS="-j6"

VIDEO_CARDS="vmware"

INPUT_DEVICES="libinput"

LINGUAS="de en"
L10N="de en"

/var/log/Xorg.0.log https://bpa.st/GJPA

/var/log/dmesg http://bpa.st/XVJA

After startx: /var/log/Xorg.0.log http://bpa.st/CBWA

 

Sorry for my bad English, my mother tongue is German.

How can I get the problem solved?

Kind regards,
