Hello all,

Everybody told me to give up trying to update one of my guest gentoo systems under virtualbox and *simply* reinstall it.

I did that and now, when I enter "xinit", x starts and then dies with the message:

   /MESA-LOADER: failed to open vboxvideo (search paths /usr/lib64/dri)/

   /failed to load driver: vboxvideo/

Note that the vboxvideo module is loaded:

   /$ lsmod | grep vbox/

   */vboxvideo              40960  1/*
   /ttm                   122880  1 vboxvideo/
   /drm_kms_helper        217088  1 vboxvideo/
   /drm                   552960  4 drm_kms_helper,vboxvideo,ttm/
   /vboxnetadp             28672  0/
   /vboxnetflt             32768  0/
   /vboxdrv               475136  2 vboxnetadp,vboxnetflt/
   /vboxguest             335872  0/

but it turns out there's a vboxvideo_drv.so here:

   //usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/vboxvideo_drv.so/

I tried putting a symlink in /usr/lib64/dri to that, but it didn't help.

Anybody have any experience here?

TIA
