[Pkg-virtualbox-devel] Bug#490541: x server cannot auto-detect vboxvideo display adapter

[Avi Rozen]

Package: virtualbox-ose-guest-utils
Version: 1.6.2-dfsg-2
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

If the X server is configured for hardware auto-detection, then it fails 
to identify the vboxvideo display adapter.

This happens beacuse the file vboxvideo.ids from the source package 
is not installed by the binary package.

The attached patch (against debian/virtualbox-ose-guest-utils.install)
fixes this problem.
