You should try VirtualBox 4.0.2 - Currently it can only to be downloaded from VirtualBox.org Looks as 3.1.6 can' handle XServer 1.9 which is present in Maverick. (thanks 4 the picture) On a bug-update from VirtualBox.org there is also available a new Version of Guest-Additions V.4.0.3-69551, with reference to http://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/8122
Before installing these Guest-Additions within the Guest just move the downloaded file to /usr/share/virtualbox/ or define the location via vboxmgr (the programm-surface) A one should really ask to have virtualbox-4.0.2-Ose backported to Maverick. In Natty it's done, see bug #709027 Virtual 3.1.6.won't work with Ubuntu 10.10 see also http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Download_Old_Builds_3_1 Best wishes + regards ** Bug watch added: Virtualbox Trac #8122 http://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/8122 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/665449 Title: Guest additions dont work in 10.10 guest -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
