Xorg error log

Description of problem:
When attempting to startx on F13 within a VirtualBox guest X is unable to start as it can't find the vboxvideo driver. Creating an xorg.conf setting the device to use vesa allows X to start. Either provide the module or allow X to fall back to vesa for this virtual hardware I guess?

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:

Steps to Reproduce:
1. login on console
2. startx
3.
  
Actual results:
error output to consol

Expected results:
Xwindows startup successful...
