Ticket #15768 (closed defect: duplicate)
Display stops refreshing after trying to "move" stuff around -> duplicate of #15511

Description
Host: "Windows 10", Guest: "Lubuntu 16.04", VirtualBox 5.1.2 r108956 win.amd64
If the guest addons version 5.1.2 is installed (Vbox.log.1) the guest stops refreshing the display, when stuff is moved around. A quick example is, open firefox, search for "asd", pick the first entry, click down on it (dont release), hold it and try to move the link. After that, the machine stops refreshing. I've found out only one way of "force" refreshing the current state, which is alternating between host and guest.
I've installed the version 5.0.16(VBox.log). That version is working for that matter.
Best regards Ken

If there is a message in Xorg.0.log about disabling dirty updates or similar then this is a bug in X.Org. It is fixed in 1.18.4 ("modesetting: resubmit dirty rects on EINVAL (v2)"). Perhaps you can ask Canonical to back-port it to Ubuntu 16.04?
