Issue with VBoxClient and display manager #24

Closed carlwilson closed 1 year ago

carlwilson commented 4 years ago

This is a strange issue. When the VM is started the user is presented with a rough looking X11 dialog with this text

VBoxClient: Failed to get display change request, rc=VERR_IO_BAD_LENGTH

which you'll need to dismiss. This has manifest itself as I've brought the PRs for the beta into a single Vagrant and Ansible build. None of the individual PRs break this individually, only when combined. The bad news is that this is hard to source, the good news is that once you've pressed the OK button you're good, though it seems to take a long time for this to happen when the machine is first started. It looks like this, I'll track and fix over the next week.

It looks like this:

I believe that this will be fixed with #17, review if that is now the case.
