Seeing `swrast_dri.so` in the third shot, I assume that the Neverware's
virtual machine `CloudReady-Home-v78-x64.ova` is not compatible with
VirtualBox on FreeBSD.
Any suggestions on how to work around the issue?
A significant obstacle: the console remains visible for only a few
seconds at a time. After each blackout, it's necessary to (again) log in
at the command line.
