>Description:
After installing NetBSD in Sun VirtualBox under Windows:
When typing startx at a fresh netbsd installation, X appears, but the mouse doesn't work.
When typing X -configure (or Xorg -configure), the screen turns black and the VM hangs.
After rebooting, ~/xorg.conf.new (generated by X -configure) is filled with @ characters when viewed in vi.
>How-To-Repeat:
1. Install NetBSD in VirtualBox with all X sets
2. Login as root
3. Type X -configure
