            Bug ID: 265731
           Summary: emulators/virtualbox-ose-additions: vboxvideo: module
                    ABI major version doesn't match the server's version
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)
          Assignee: vbox@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: ohartmann@walstatt.org
          Assignee: vbox@FreeBSD.org
             Flags: maintainer-feedback?(vbox@FreeBSD.org)

Running FreeBSD 13.1-RELEASE-p0 as guest within a VBox (host is the Linux,
supposedly RedHat, of a security OS, no further details known, VBox is 6.1.28),
FreeBSD's X11 rejects to work since today's update of ports.

Starting X11 results in a suspicous log entry, stating:

(EE) vboxvideo: module ABI major version (24) doesn't match the server's
version (25)

I guess this reported mismathc is the culprit.

Since I have not chance to change anything and any parameter for video setting
of the host's VBox settings, nor is it lileky that the version of the used VBox
will be pushed towards 6.1.36 as FreeBSD's ports, I desperately need a solution
applicable from the guest itself (FreeBSD). Is there a workaround possible?
