<div>> This mailing list is intended for VirtualBox development work. Your<br>> issue seems to be with using VirtualBox and not development.<br>><br>> Please use the VirtualBox user forums (<a href="https://forums.virtualbox.org/" target="_blank">https://forums.virtualbox.org/</a>)<br>
> to resolve such issues.<br><br></div>Ram is very right.<br><br>Regarding your problem: I'm not sure what you mean by "mouse not working<br>in VM". My guess is that you have a USB mouse attached to your host and<br>
use this mouse device for the normal desktop work. Now you start a VM and<br>the mouse integration does not work. That is, the guest has it's own<br>mouse pointer and if you move the host mouse pointer over the VM then<br>
the guest mouse pointer does not move until you click in the VM window.<br><br>If this is really the case, make sure that your Guest Additions are really<br>working. Do this by opening the VM information window (VM hostkey + N).<br>
The information should display the correct version of the installed<br>Additions. If this works, check if VM menu / Machine / Disable Mouse<br>integration is NOT checked.<br><br>Also make sure that you do NOT try to pass your USB mouse as USB device<br>
into the guest. This is wrong as the USB mouse should be used for your<br>host and the guest has to see only a virtual mouse device.<br><br>But as Ram said, please go to the forums and provide some more information<br>what 'mouse does not work' actually means.<br>
