Is it possible also add these files ? : "vboxvideo.ko" and "vboxadd.ko" kernel drivers from virtualbox-ose-kmp-* package and "90-vboxguest.fdi" hal policy file from xorg-x11-driver-virtualbox-ose
But then you would also need to make sure that /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/input/vboxmouse_drv.so is available. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Stefan, shouldn't we then not include all of xorg/modules/drivers?
I believe this would be a bit much. I think it's enough to include the drivers, which are used by our static xorg.conf, that we use during installation, i.e. fbdev, vesa, cirrus (for qemu) and vbox. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

and what about libdri.so, will be added too ? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

It proceeds through graphical Welcome, System Analysis I select New Installation (no Add-on, yes Auto config) It says Initialising, sync with NTP, quickly displays a world map and then says
this means that virtualbox xorg driver (vboxvideo_dri.so) works, because we already do few install steps in graphical mode
An error occurred during the installation
The last messages on console 3 are: starting setctsid 'showconsole' inst_setup yast install program exit code is 137 sync... ok setfont linuxrx-16.pfsu
problem occurs during install phase, IMHO this is not related to original bug report, yast logs needed here
console 8 shows: FATAL: Module vboxvideo not found (EE) [drm] drmOpen failed (EE) VBoxVideo(0): DRIScreenInit failed, disabling DRI.
this message is caused by missing vboxvideo.ko kernel module (Comment #5), and FATAL status is here misleading, vboxvideo.ko is needed only for additional features (screen resize, shared clipboard, openGL, etc ..), and vbox xorg driver in guest works also without this module -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
