On a guest gentoo virtualbox vm: - host + guest virtualbox versions 5.2.32 - dbus started - bidirectional clipboard sharing enabled from the GUI - app-emulation/virtualbox-guest-additions running - i3 window manager used Few issues here: 1- the autostart .desktop file is irrelevent for i3 and not deployed after emerge 2- the clipboard sharing doesn't work, unless VBoxClient --clipboard is manually run. 3- using the provided default xorg.conf file prevents prevents startx from running (https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1103208-highlight-virtualbox.html) 4- it could be good to check -during GA emerge- whenever dbus is started and added to default runlevel
Created attachment 597470 [details] Xorg log of provided xorg.conf file startx fails with the xorg.conf file provided by virtualbox-guest-additions.
Created attachment 597472 [details] Xorg log of startx without xorg.conf config file startx succeeds when xorg guesses its own config. modesettings seems to be used
