[OpenIndiana-discuss] Virtualbox Xorg video driver compatible with 1.19.5

[Aurélien Larcher]

Hi,
we just merged a pull-request to provide the Xorg driver for Virtualbox
compatible with Xorg 1.19:

https://github.com/OpenIndiana/oi-userland/pull/3723

The package x11/server/xorg/driver/xorg-video-vboxvideo is now available in
the repository.
It should be installed with further updates as it is part of the xorg-video
metapackage.

Note that you still need to install the Guest Additions.

After installation the Xorg log should read:

[   243.842] (==) Matched vboxvideo as autoconfigured driver 0
[   243.842] (==) Matched vesa as autoconfigured driver 1
