xubuntu86wHi I have downloaded xubuntu-18.10-desktop-amd64.iso and installed on VirtualBox 5.2.22 on Windows, after boot I see garbled display as described in https://superuser.com/questions/1295202/garbled-display-when-running-lubuntu-17-10-as-guest-os11:26
Cybertinusxubuntu86w: try disabling 3D accelaration in your VM settings11:26
xubuntu86wit is not enabled11:26
xubuntu86wif I download and install xubuntu-18.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso everything is fine11:27
Cybertinusok, then that's not it :)11:27
xubuntu86wso it looks like the problem is introduced with 18.1011:27
Cybertinusdo you have the guest additions installed, or weren't you able to do that because you get this screen right away?11:27
xubuntu86wthere is a workaround : Press Ctrl-Alt-F2 to switch to text terminal and then Ctrl-Alt-F7 to switch back to GUI11:29
xubuntu86wno I do not have guest additions11:29
Cybertinusthe two tips specified in the topic you just link don't help too, I assume?11:30
Cybertinuswell, try installing the guest additions11:30
xubuntu86wlet me check11:30
CybertinusI have to go afk now, be back in an hour or so, I think11:32
xubuntu86wok I will report my experiments with the hints hereafter11:33
xubuntu86wonly setting video memory to 128MB has no effect11:38
xubuntu86wdisabling nested paging (system -> acceleration -> enable nested paging checkbox) AND increasing the video memory to 128 mb (display -> video memory slider) : in this case for 1 second the screen is displayed correctly then it becomes garbled11:47
Unit193Typically when I've seen that, flipping to a TTY and restarting lightdm fixes it.12:06

irgendwer4711any one?22:57
guivercirgendwer4711, i don't use it (I usually wget my files), how do you get to the firefox download window  (I'll have a look & see how it is for me)23:09
irgendwer4711main gui23:10
irgendwer4711download button23:10
guiverci don't have one; maybe it appears when you first download (and I haven't yet)23:11
irgendwer4711no23:11
guivercokay found it ; library->downloads - on mine it just opens thunar when i click 'downloads'23:15
guiverc(thunar $HOME/Downloads/)23:15
irgendwer4711I tried another firefox profil and the problem is there too,.23:16
irgendwer4711hm I see, could be an apparmor problem23:17
guiverci don't know enough about firefox sorry.  if it were me I'd try `sudo apt install --reinstall firefox` (which is likely to change nothing), then create new user id; & try from there (If that works okay; it's likely a config issue in your profile/settings saved in your user directory; but I'm guessing only as I don't know23:17
irgendwer4711its apparmor23:19
guivercyou could ask in #ubuntu (please only ask in a single room though or wait before asking in another room; I can't help with apparmor sorry)23:21
irgendwer4711ok23:23
