Every time that a set a new wallpaper, the screen turns out black and keeps repeating it self (just like the old Windows 98 freezes).
However, the launcher, shutdown screen and the PC as a whole works normally, it is just the buggy wallpaper.

Some tips to resolve that?

Use VMWare Workstation Player instead of Oracle VirtualBox.
Install VMTools through the execution of the *.pl script.

Thank you for the reply, I will consider move to VMWare.
Kinda strange behavior because this is my second VM with Deepin using VirtualBox, but this is the first one to have this problem.

All the wallpapers which comes with Deepin reproduce this behavior.

I finally figure out the problem!
The VirtualBox Guests Additions provided by the own VirtualBox seems to cause this.

Fix: Install the Guest Additions via apt-get from deepin repository.
"sudo apt-get virtualbox-guest-x11"
