I just found this in Xorg.0.log:

This has been discussed before on this list in 2017. Have you tried the
(admittedly counter-intuitive) solution of blacklisting vboxvideo to avoid
conflicts with the kernel frame buffer? [1]
$ echo 'blacklist vboxvideo' >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf

I tried that and it didn't work. When I looked at the reference, I saw
that he subsequently does a new genkernel...
I guess I could try that. But I have at least 4 Vbox gentoo
installations (including this one, before I re-installed) and don't have
to blacklist vboxvideo and re-gen the kernel in any other case.
