[Bug 605199] Re: mavererick netbook iso fails at desktop in virtualbox

2010-07-25 Thread Omer Akram
it seems unity does not work in virtualbox as someone at IRC yesterday
had the exact problem. I have not tried virtualbox but is it capable
enough to run a 3d environment?

It is definitely capable of running a 3d environment as a guest.  I'm
using the ubuntu testdrive tool to do testing of daily ISOs so I'm not
certain what parameters that testdrive passes to virtualbox in respect
to enabling 3D effects.

I can try to manually set up a virtualbox guest with 3d-parameters and
see if the ISO will boot.

I set up a guest machine with 3D features enabled.  The ISO boots but
still fails at loading the unity desktop environment.

I also burned today's daily ISO to a USB stick to see if it was the VM
or the ISO.  The ISO wouldn't even boot, freezing at the grub boot:
prompt with an unknown keyword in configuration file error.

 Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu: New

 Bug description:
 I'm using testdrive to test the latest maverick ISOs using virtualbox 3.2
 as my test environment.

 I've noticed that from inception to now (post alpha-2), the netbook ISO
 fails at the point of loading the desktop GUI.
 I've been unsuccessful in switching to a virtual console in the guest
 environment to try and look at the logs, so if someone can give me some
 pointers on doing this I can probably add more information to the bug.

 I suspect this may be a duplicate, however I searched on launchpad several
 times for this bug and the search continually timed out.

 Basically the gui starts, but no netbook menu loads, so I'm left with a
 blank destop with a mouse cursor (which responds).  I can do an ACPI
 shutdown and the guest VM responds with a shutdown menu which I can navigate
 with the keypad.  The system will then shut down.

I get a bit further with unetbootin, but am dumped to busybox prompt as the 
splash screen tries to load.
This is on the daily netbook i386 ISO from 25/7/10.
