Let me know if you need more information.
This is weird given the fact that I am using a Windows 7 VM running absolutely fine. Couple of questions: 1) Are you, by any chance, using the Experimental 3D driver ? There are other reports, when using that driver. 2) From your error logs (dmesg), it looks like the guest drivers were inaccessible. Did you reboot your kernel after the update ? 3) Is the virtualbox init service running ? That service is supposed to set up the necessary environment. -- Ritesh Raj Sarraf RESEARCHUT - http://www.researchut.com "Necessity is the mother of invention."
