#8055: Screen goes black at end of boot unless safe mode is selected when Haiku is a guest under VirtualBox on Ubuntu 11.10 -------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Reporter: Don | Owner: nobody Quixote | Status: new Type: bug | Milestone: R1 Priority: normal | Version: R1/Development Component: | Keywords: VirtualBox, virtualization, Ubuntu, Drivers/Graphics | 11.10, Oneiric Ocelot, video, vga, safe mode, Resolution: | MacBookPro1_1 Blocked By: | Blocking: Has a Patch: 0 | Platform: x86 -------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Comment (by Don Quixote): it seems to be necessary to select both fail-safe video mode in the Haiku boot menu, as well as to select the fail-safe video options. I succeeded with 32-bit 1024x768. If I used the default fail-safe video I always got the black screen at end of boot. IO APIC enabled or disabled in the VirtualBox guest configuration does not seem to matter. -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/8055#comment:2> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
