And I can move and click & drag the cursor to make selection boxes, but can select nothing since there's nothing but black to select.

I'm able to access the Escape menu with all those options(But it crashes on trying to save). It shows the loading stork for a second or two then flashes to 'in-game' which is nothing more than a black screen with the main menu music playing over it.

My issue starts when I actually try to PLAY the game. A script launches between the two seemlessly when you exit and enter Steam itself.So the game works fine as far as the main menu and intros, both are nice and dandy(Though the lack of in-game options menu is annoying). I’m not sure how that EULA is rendered between the two desktops with the graphics stack, since the steam user has a unique compositor, and the desktop one uses plain Gnome 3 I believe. Blinding, but carefully, hitting TAB+SPACE+ENTER to accept the EULA you can’t see worked everytime for me. The other issue I would get consitantly on test hardware was a blank screen after booting up SteamOS for the first time post-installation. It removes a lot of kinks and issues for people. To be honest, per the latest addition to the main workarounds article, you really should give Ye Olde SteamOSe a try. When you reboot, SteamOS will try to make a recovery partition, but I don’t think that will work, since the Non-UEFI bootable DVD, uses the same recovery/standard image Valve gives out that is setup for 1 TB. I may be mistaken, but it sounds like you may have gotten stuck after the “post_install.sh” script part. This seemed to do the trick and presented me with the EULA page. I myself still received a black screen, so what I did was remove my HDMI cable to my low-profile Nvidia card, and reboot using the DVI cable with no other cables hooked into the monitor I was using.Login as “desktop” (password for sudo commands is “desktop).If you receive a black screen after booting up, likely this is some odd Nvidia issue.After picking “Gnome” and logging on with the Steam account (password “steam), hit the “Return to Steam” shortcut on the desktop.Note: if for some reason the reboot fails to find the kernel, hit “return” and choose the 1st default GRUB boot entry.Installation will commence and reboot the PC.Open the “Home” folder and run the file “post_logon.sh” Choose to “Run in Terminal.” This is paramount for big picture mode.

Steam os virtualbox black screen manual#
*default.preseed file was edited to enable manual partitioning *The ISO image was created using grub-mkrescue (it uses xorriso inside) with original grub.cfg. *grub-efi was replaced by grub-pc to drop UEFI dependency and apt-cdrom reposory had been rebuilt (Packages.gz and Release files). *So, basically this ISO was built from original SteamOSInstaller.zip from Valve.

GamePas64 (author of method) states, “Do not use UNetBootin, it starts to think, that this is Debian installation, but it isn’t.”
