Virtualbox 1.6.x - 2.0 black screen when starting any VM

Post by netoor »

When starting any virtual machine (either bootable iso image or vdi file) in VirtualBox on Ubuntu 8.04.1 there is only black screen displayed and the VM doesn't start at all. In 1.6.x vesrions a gray background of the bootable image could be seen when it's stopped, in 2.0 it's all black. VirtualBox is installed from deb package successfully but isn't working. I've met the same topics on internet but with no result
