Nope, there is no X server in the Gentoo image, sorry - I was trying
to keep the image as small as possible. If I added an X server, then I
would have to add a browser as well; and then I might as well add
xulrunner. I can do that, if there's sufficient demand - it will just
make the image bigger.

Are you sure that ifconfig is only returning the 127.0.0.1 IP address?
Have you tried switching to a NAT'ed network connection, or a bridged
network connection?

You could always try adding another network adapter to the virtual
machine to see if that kickstarts it for whatever reason.
