#7432 worksforme CentOS5 Virtual Machine Can't Find CentOS Disk Andrewx
Description

When Installing CentOS5 inside a Windows XP Professional host, the OS boots up however it can not install. The reason for this is that the installer cannot find the CentOS disk. The .iso image is properly attached as the primary slave as a CD/DVD. The installer just can seem to find the disk...

#14797 fixed Fedora 23 / XOrg 1.18 - vboxvideo driver isn't compatible -> fixed in 5.0.16 and later AndreyVen
Description

I installed official Fedora 23 KDE Spin inside VirtualBox 5.0.8 (host OS: Windows 10). Video driver from VirtualBox Guest Additions cannot be installed, because of incompatibility with XOrg server version.

For end user it looks as he/she cannot resize the screen of guest (no integration) and also there is no 3d acceleration.

Additional Notes:

  • clipboard sharing works
  • mouse integration works
  • shared folders integration works

As I understand: It's necessary to add support of XOrg server 1.18 into vboxvideo driver.

Investigations which I performed on clean installation of Fedora 23 (+official rpm updates):

1) I tried to install vbox additions 5.0.8. No success, screen is not resizeable.

There is a message during installation process of VBoxGuestAdditions:

Warning: unsupported pre-release version of X.Org Server installed.  Not
installing the X.Org drivers.

2) I tried to download test build of guest additions (VBoxGuestAdditions_5.0.9-103895.iso):

The same message:

Warning: unsupported pre-release version of X.Org Server installed.  Not
installing the X.Org drivers.

3) I followed suggestion from forums and copied file vboxvideo_drv_117.so directly to /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/

Result: The driver isn't compatible with new XOrg. Message in xorg's log:

[     5.310] (II) LoadModule: "vboxvideo"
[     5.310] (II) Loading /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/vboxvideo_drv.so

cp commandline:

cp /opt/VBoxGuestAdditions-5.0.9/lib/VBoxGuestAdditions/vboxvideo_drv_117.so /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/vboxvideo_drv.so

4) I tried to follow other suggestions from forums and downgraded of XOrg server to previous version

Result: VirtualBox addons can be installed, integration works fine, but there are strange UI errors in KDE:

  • task panel occasionally disappears, but appears on resizing of screen
  • I cannot switch to terminal session by pressing Ctrl+Alt+F2. Switch happens, screen resized to text based terminal size, but I still see graphics from X session, it's not refreshed.

I'm sure it's Fedora 23rd's incompatibility with previous release of XOrg server. There is nothing to be fixed in Virtual Box.

Software versions:

Log files of XOrg and VirtuaBox installation are attached.

#12596 obsolete VirtualBox does not work with the path containing Cyrillic symbols Andrii
Description

I have a user profile path "C:\Users\Андрій". So when VitualBox installer sets "C:\Users\Андрій\Documents\VirtualBox VMs" as VMs path it changes it to some strange path that does not exist. And when I choose it in VirtualBox settings it does the same.
