VMSVGA window resizing is not working under wayland (gnome
via gdm). I haven't tested X. Tested with a fresh Arch guest
running under a VirtualBox 6.1.12 host.
To recreate this you can `pacman -Syu gnome gdm virtualbox-guest-utils` and reboot I assume the window resizing is broken is because the vboxdrmclient.service fails with exit code 252. I can't seem to get any more ouput on the failure than that. Could this possibly be related to /usr/bin/VBoxDRMClient missing the setuid bit? ``` $ sudo journalctl -b0 -u vboxdrmclient.service -- Logs begin at Thu 2020-07-16 10:09:40 UTC, end at Thu 2020-07-16 11:48:28 UTC. -- Jul 16 11:25:19 measurebox systemd[1]: Started VirtualBox Guest VMSVGA resize client. Jul 16 11:25:20 measurebox systemd[1]: vboxdrmclient.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=252/n/a Jul 16 11:25:20 measurebox systemd[1]: vboxdrmclient.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'. ``` FYI VMSVGA window resizing is working if the guest additions are installed via the official Guest Additions ISO from oracle and their VBoxDRMClient binary has the setuid bit. |
