it is by design , have selinux enabled ? if yes please try with selinux disabled anyway please attach /var/log/Xorg.0.log Created attachment 1618 [details]
Xorg.0.log file
SELINUX is already disabled. Xorg.0.log file attached. Thanks. My /var/log/Xorg.0.log [ 83.374] (==) Matched vboxvideo as autoconfigured driver 0 [ 83.374] (==) Matched vboxvideo as autoconfigured driver 1 [ 83.374] (==) Matched modesetting as autoconfigured driver 2 [ 83.374] (==) Matched fbdev as autoconfigured driver 3 [ 83.374] (==) Matched vesa as autoconfigured driver 4 [ 83.374] (==) Assigned the driver to the xf86ConfigLayout [ 83.374] (II) LoadModule: "vboxvideo" [ 83.391] (WW) Warning, couldn't open module vboxvideo [ 83.391] (II) UnloadModule: "vboxvideo" [ 83.391] (II) Unloading vboxvideo [ 83.391] (EE) Failed to load module "vboxvideo" (module does not exist, 0) [ 83.391] (II) LoadModule: "modesetting" I think you haven't load vboxvideo.ko because is not loading with kernel 4.7 , anyway Fedora could load X with any guest-additions, I tried and loads (again) module modesetting ... . So it is weird, /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/modesetting_drv.so is part of xorg-x11-server-Xorg package . Moving on, I can't build VirtualBox 5.1.4 in rpmfusion because kbuild is not updated on F24 repo (I could take some day to fix it) . So I recommend use my copr repo [1] as work around and try new Vbox 5.1.4 , is the same package that will be in RPMFusion soon . Thanks for the report. [1] https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/sergiomb/vboxfor23/ Sergio, thanks for sharing your Copr repo. I installed it and new guest additions. The kernel driver is now loading, but Xorg.0.log still mentions it tried to find vboxvideo and then aborts with now screens. The vboxvideo driver Xorg is complaining about is not the kernel one, I think you know that, right? It's an Xorg driver which used to come with one of the VirtualBox packages before. Can I see your xorg.conf? Maybe there's something different and yours tries modesetting and mine doesn't. The file modesetting_drv.so is there, I checked.

I don't have /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, we shouldn't have /etc/X11/xorg.conf , now configuration are done in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d , I only have /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/00-keyboard.conf ... Have you tried disable selinux ? SELINUX is disabled, I told you that. Then I don't know why it doesn't even search for the modesetting driver. :-/ *** Bug 4251 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** To build new Virtual 5.1 on Fedora 24 I need kbuild with qt5 support , for that I need kBuild-0.1.9998-10.r2814 in stable repos https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2016-c516ed6023 https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2016-f4d8180e51 can use give me karma is that bodhi requests ? Sorry, I'd love to help, but I have no clue what karma in bodhi means. I just got myself a fedora account, but cannot find any way to distribute karma. r. login with your fedora id in https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org goto following links and approve the packages please https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2016-c516ed6023 https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2016-f4d8180e51 OK, pretending that I actually tested it :-) (In reply to Roy Dragseth from comment #13) > OK, pretending that I actually tested it :-) Thanks , you will test it soon ;) I hope , now we have to wait more 3 or 5 days to have an update of Vbox in F24 and F23 , because one day to be publish , more one day to be in rpmfusion buildroots, build it and publish can take 2 , 4 days ... So I recommend use my copr repo [1] as workaround and try new Vbox 5.1.4 , is the same package that will be in RPMFusion soon . Thanks for the help. [1] https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/sergiomb/vboxfor23/ Wow, that was quick! I used you repo and can confirm that it works correctly. Again, thanks for the great work! r. VirtualBox-5.1.6-1 in updates for F23+ , fixed , please reopen if not. |
