cant start netbook desktop on VirtualBox VM

[Joao Ferreira gmail]

Hello all,

I am a Linux / Debian / *buntu user for some time now. Great software :)

I was trying out edubuntu 10.01 for my 9 year old boy. I installed it on
a VirtualBox VM and I requested the instalation of the Netbook Desktop.

It happens that in the VirtualBox environment (I did not yet try the
'real' computer) I get an error message when I try to load the "Ubuntu
Netbook Edition" Desktop. Then I just get re-directed to the login page
again.

The message says:

"No required driver detected for unity
You will need to choose the Ubuntu Desktop session once you select your
username
..."

Is there any way around this on the VM ? My intention is just to give it
a try at the Netbook interface and ask my son if he'dd like to have that
or the usual one. He is an Ubuntu 8.10 fan since 7 years old :)

Thanks
Joao
