1 hi!
2
3 I'm running Gentoo inside VirtualBox (on a Windows host, if that matters)
4 and I can't make X.org work. when I try "X -configure" it says it can't load
5 the vboxvideo library. according to some Google searches, that library
6 really doesn't work with the newest X.org. if that's really true, is there
7 currently any combination of VirtualBox/X.org/Gentoo libraries to run X.org
8 inside VirtualBox?

10 I'm running ~x86, so now I have =x11-base/xorg-server-1.7.4,
11 =app-emulation/virtualbox-guest-additions-3.1.0 (running at boot),
12 =x11-drivers/xf86-input-virtualbox-3.1.0 and
13 =x11-drivers/xf86-video-virtualbox-3.1.0. when I run "X -configure", the
14 error log shows:
15
16 List of video drivers:
17 vboxvideo
18 dlopen: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/vboxvideo_drv.so: undefined symbol:
19 resVgaShared
20 (EE) Failed to load /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/vboxvideo_drv.so
21 (EE) Failed to load module "vboxvideo" (loader failed, 7)
22
23 any hep would be appreciated.
