I understand the need for using VMs, and I had tested that Leap 42.1 worked in
a VB VM using KDE. I had no way of knowing that the update of gdm to 3.16.x
would break vboxvideo. At least this issue will be fixed for Leap GM and in a
near-future Tumbleweed release.

BTW, if you are unhappy with the way I maintain VirtualBox, I would be more
than happy to turn it over to you. :)
