hi there,
I have installed FreeBSD 8.1 with Gnome 2.30 as guest on VirtualBox 3.2.8 on an openSuse 11.3 host. Next I have installed virtualbox-ose-additions through pkg_add -r.
Now I have a problem with mouse after that. I've changed in the xorg.conf the section "Input Device" --> Driver from "mouse" to "vboxmouse", and i've followed all the instruction in http://wiki.freebsd.org/VirtualBox. Now I have the mouse moving but i can't use it since the pointer doesn't work. How can i modify my xorg.conf now? is there any shortcut working (since Alt+F2 doesn't work). I've also tried to kill X but but it doesn't work:
1. because i'm on a linux host and with Ctrl+Alt+Del I kill X session of the host (/etc/rc.d/gdm stop also doesn't work)
2. gdm is enabled in rc.conf and it will be reload after have killed X session.
anyone could help me?
thanks - LuKe
