  I've just rebuilt the VirtualBox, package version is
virtualbox-ose-3.2.8_1 now. However, when I select my WinXP guest in
the VirtualBox GUI -> Settings -> Display, I see that "Enable 3D
Acceleration" checkbox is selectable, but "Enable 2D Video
Acceleration" one is inactive! I use 8.1-STABLE/amd64 with ATI RV370
[Radeon X300SE] video adapter, X.Org X Server 1.7.5, video driver
"radeon", direct rendering enabled, "AccelMethod" is "EXA".
What else should I check in order to verify why the "Enable 2D Video
Acceleration" option is inactive?
