Black screen at guest login (boot process is normal)
Posted: 6. Jan 2020, 11:55
Sorry for posting yet another 'black screen' problem.
I'm running 6.0.14 r133895 with an osboxes dot org Debian guest. Everything was fine when I first installed things (about 6-8 weeks ago IIRC). About a month ago I responded to the popup and updated VirtualBox to the current version and then the problem appeared.
So, I start the guest, the new screen window appears, and I can see the usual Debian startup messages. When I expect to see the login screen, the window goes black. Then Click on View -> virtual screen 1 -> anything, and the login page appears as expected. Everything works then.
Anything obvious?
Regards, S
