Black console screen for a Debian Wheezy 64bit guest

Hi,

I have create a Linux guest ((Linux kernel 3.14.34 amd64) on a Windows 8.1 Pro, 64-bit  (Build 9600) 6.3.9600 host.

My version of Workstation is 11.1.0 build-249682.

After displaying some lines during the first seconds of the boot sequence, the screen becomes quickly black.

However the guest  is accessible by SSH and looks healthy.

I have activated the debug log and I have found in the file many occurrence of the following line;

2015-03-06T11:14:33.214+01:00| svga| I120: SVGA Driver Error: svgaScreenMgr.c:3823 Unknown

Does it mean anything to somebody?

Thank You,

Serge
