I have a guest running Slackware 14.2 under Windows 7, with VirtualBox 6.0.8. Everything was fine until I said, "Self, you haven't updated the Guest Additions to the latest version in a while", so I went and did that. After rebooting the guest, it is unusably slow. It boots normally until it gets up to
Code: Select all
[drm] Initialized vboxvideo 1.0.0 20130823 for 0000:00:02.0 on minor 0
After that the boot seems to hang for several minutes. It does eventually complete, I get a login prompt, and can log in, but the console takes about 20 seconds to respond to any keypress. I upgraded to 6.0.10 to make sure I was on the latest version with any bugfixes, but the behavior is unchanged. Thoughts/suggestions/places to start troubleshooting?
