Please see comment 1[1] and 14[2] on that ticket.  We believe that this
is a problem in setfont, not in VirtualBox (or Ubuntu for that matter).

  (Content copied from "Ubuntu 14.10 ISO live boot ends up with a
  corrupted display" #13615 VirtualBox bug ticket, by piotrjurkiewicz)

  Booting up live session of Ubuntu MATE 14.10 and Ubuntu Gnome 14.10 from ISO ends up with a corrupted screen. See the screenshot:

  Switching back and forth to the tty7 (ctrl+alt+F1 and then alt+F7)
  fixes the display.

  I think that this might be a problem with resolution setting:

  ```
  00:00:31.226379 Display::handleDisplayResize(): uScreenId = 0, pvVRAM=0000000000000000 w=1152 h=400 bpp=0 cbLine=0x0, flags=0x1
  00:00:31.226399 UIFrameBuffer::RequestResize: Screen=0, Format=0, BitsPerPixel=0, BytesPerLine=0, Size=1152x400, Sending to async-handler..
  00:00:31.226457 UIFrameBufferQImage::resizeEvent: Format=0, BitsPerPixel=0, BytesPerLine=0, Size=1152x400
  00:00:31.226467 UIFrameBufferQImage::resizeEvent: Resizing to FALLBACK buffer due to format is invalid..
  ```

  After switching back and forth to the tty7 (what fixes the display)
  the log says:

  ```
  00:00:31.226379 Display::handleDisplayResize(): uScreenId = 0, pvVRAM=0000000000000000 w=1152 h=400 bpp=0 cbLine=0x0, flags=0x1

  I have tested 4.3.18 and also the testbuild 4.3.19 r96825, it happens
  on both of them.
