virtualbox implemented an incomplete version of the svga device which they decided to drop soon after the initial release. The device was always broken in various ways and never supported by vmwgfx. vmwgfx should refuse to load on those configurations but currently drm has no way of reloading fbdev when the specific pci driver refuses to load, which would leave users without a usable fb. Instead of refusing to load print an error and disable a bunch of functionality that virtualbox never implemented to at least get fb to work on their setup.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
