As with my prior msgs running the latest VirtualBox with CentOS 7.2. Base installation goes well, I installed 'base-devel' & 'linux-headers' and then install Guest Additions. All seems fine, I reboot and the usual system startup msgs and right as it should start the desktop I am faced with a blank page and a cursor on the top right. I grepped all files in /var/log/2016-12-25 for 'error' (any case) and didn't get anything of value. I'm not certain where to turn next. I have tailed that I would assume to be some relevant files below. What can I try next?

Thanks in advance,

Paul

Thanks for the reply. My virtual HD is 15GB total, I left the partition sizes at the default. I guess maybe it's a bit small so I tried another one just now with 20GB & upped the root partition size but the same result :-( Anything else I can check?

Thx,

Paul

The only other thing I can think of would be the type of Linux you are telling it to run as, When I was playing with this, I had to use (other 64bit Linux) as I recall.

Thx tscholl. Indeed I had it set to 'Arch' so I switched it to 'Other 64' but still no luck. In looking through thru xorg log I noticed it seemed to still be using 'vesa' as the GFX driver so I figured I would try to chg that in /etc/X11/ somewhere and I was surprised to find no conf files in there other than /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-automv.conf which was tiny but did indeed reference 'vesa' so I replaced that file with the contents below. As soon as I saved that the GUI appeared in my VBox client window! That surprised me, no restart of anything. But to be sure I rebooted and it was still good. Great, however, /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-automv.conf seemed to have been renamed to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-automv.conf.old! WTF? But it works so I'm leaving it. But if anyone has any pointers as to how or why this is working I'd be grateful to hear them.

Then I noticed there was no vboxsf module installed but if I installed it via modprobe it seemed to work ok so I created /etc/modules-load.d/vbox-modules.conf as below and now it and vboxguest seem to be running ok.

Overall a bit more work than I would have expected to get this working on VirtualBox but that's fine, leaving the info here for others who may find it helpful.

One more oddity: Shared Folders would not auto-mount so I added the line below to /etc/fstab. Note the uid setting - this was necessary so user mythtv could write the recordings to the shared folder (the shared folder "name" specified in the VBox GUI was "linhes", this is the same name as specified in the first word of the line below plus I manually created the mount point /mythSF).

Code:
linhes /mythSF vboxsf uid=1000 0 0
