FYI.  have done some further tests with the prebuilt binaries and 
toolchain (yocto-eglibc-i686-i586-toolchain-gmae-1.0.tar.bz2, 
bzImage-2.6.37-qemux86-1.0.bin and 
yocto-image-minimal-dev-qemux86-1.0.rootfs.ext3).

With Ubuntu 11.10 (Virtual Box), it fails with the same black screen.
With Debian Squeeze 6.0.3 (inside Virtual Box), it works fine.

PS: For Ubuntu, poky-qemu script to pass libGL detection.
