[SOLVED] Black screen on boot after latest update

Today updated with 'sudo pacman -Suy" and now every time I boot arch i get a black screen. After loading the kernel briefly shows the mouse arrow half a second, then stays a black screen. Arch is inside a Virtualbox vm.

Any help with this? Control + Alt + Fx doesn't work to switch to another tty.

It's fixed. I had VMSVGA. Enabling 3D Acceleration works but feels much slower (). Setting VBoxSVGA without 3D accel works also and feels more responsive.
