What is the fringe case here?
The desktop team have tested on a variety of different hardware and we can reproduce this issue every time. I think this is a significant issue for desktop users and will affect anyone trying to run Cosmic in Virtualbox on Ubuntu. We know from the Ubuntu Report data that a significant percentage of users run in Virtualbox, so we need this to work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1796822 Title: Desktop live cd boots corrupted screen in Virtualbox on Bionic Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: On a Bionic host running the standard archive version of Virtualbox and the daily ISO of Cosmic, the live session starts with a corrupted graphical display, as can be seen here: https://imgur.com/a/rkTId4S (also attached) Switching VTs to 2 and back to 1 clears the display and things work again.
