Assuming the guest still brings up networking, you should be able to ssh
into it and inspect /var/log/Xorg.0.log. Alternatively I assume vbox
has serial console support.
I booted in graphical mode, then when the black screen with the eternal spinning
cursor appeared, switched to VT3 and grabbed Xorg.0.log - see
http://robatino.fedorapeople.org/Xorg.0.log . The file grows gradually, so this
is just a snapshot of it. I also noticed that there is an setroubleshootd
process that respawns no matter how many times I kill it - that probably
accounts for the high CPU usage I'm currently seeing. However, the black screen
problem has existed for weeks at least. The high CPU usage has only happened for
a week or two.
I'll file bugs as soon as it's clear which of these problems are unknown.
