right, not this case which is a bit weird one Booting up the live image desktop does this: - vboxvideo.ko is not initialized when X starts - X unloads modesetting and configures the vesa driver instead - vboxvideo.ko is initialized later and xserver loads modesetting again - DRI is initialized and at this point the server goes boom
Then the installer will load gdm and it works normally, because vboxvideo.ko is loaded. On the installed system the initrd probably has vboxvideo in it so it's loaded earlier, but I haven't confirmed this. In any case, the xserver probably shouldn't crash like it does, I'll try filing it upstream. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1792932 Title: Cosmic Desktop fails to boot in vbox: Xorg assert failure: Xorg: ../../../../dix/privates.c:384: dixRegisterPrivateKey: Assertion `!global_keys[type].created' failed.
