As it was a virtual machine (I guess that's the reason) Gnome 3 failed to load. I then enabled 3D acceleration in VBox and gave it the maximum allowable memory (128MB), and tried again. (This doesn't affect me in real life, where I do minimal installations and use openbox, but I was curious.) However, still no Gnome 3. I seem to remember this being a known issue--or perhaps not even considered an issue, that it won't work in many VMs.
About the graphics, I accidentally got a VirtualBox Guest Additions 4.0.5 (yes, it's a development build) ISO which supports Fedora 15 by fully supporting gold release of xorg-server 1.10. It was originally posted in vbox-users mailing list some a week ago. http://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/VBoxGuestAdditions-r70636.iso
Interesting. Thank you. I'll probably be lazy and wait till VirtualBox tells me it has a newer version available. :)
