Hi,

Just installed on OsX latest VB 5.1.6 with latest GA for linux - ubuntu 16.04, but cannot get any correct performance. It's so slow that it is just unusable.
Like I was advised previously for same kind of problem, I properly deinstalled the previous one, de-installed dkms too, then rebooted and then re-installed dkms then the GA for 5.1.6.
I join a log in case this can help. Simple open and close session to check GA operation (folder /opt, lsmod, speed)..

Thanks for any hints,

Alexandre

It seems previous GA were not properly de-installed.
Is there a way to completely clean up the GA before attempting another installation ?

Restored GA 5.1.4, works fine....

Ok,

VB 5.1.6 + MacOSX 10.11.6 is almost impossible to log in to. I get a grey
screen and forcing a refresh by popping up a window gets a log in screen
but there is no apparent response to the keyboard...

I just clicked in the password box and blind type a password and was
able to get logged in and everything seems to be working but sound.

There seems to be a problem with XDM perhaps....

I found that uncommenting the line in the file /etc/gdm/custom.conf fixed the above problem.

Note: This is with Fedora 24

the slowness seems to be fixed in the testbuilds (tested r110927)
