Description
Hi,
Last night I uninstalled VirtualBox 5.1.30 from my Xubuntu 16.04 x64 system, deleting all relative files and I did a brand new 5.2.2 installation from scratch. The new installation is facing two issues:
- It doesn't use the system GTK theme whereas 5.1.30 did. All other GTK, QT4 and QT5 apps do use it, since the system is correctly configured for this.
- Shared folder auto-mount doesn't work on Xubuntu 16.04 x64 guests whereas it works fine on Windows guests. On Xubuntu guests I have to mount it manually using "mount -t vboxsf -o uid=1000,gid=1000 shareName /media/sfPublic". This command mounts it correctly with read/write access.
Thank you.
p.s. The guest additions have been installed of course, using "sh ./VBoxLinuxAdditions.run".

Update 2: I installed all 5.2.4 releases (VirtualBox, Extension pack, Guest additions) but the issues remain.
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
Update: On a newly created KDE Neon guest, based on the same Ubuntu core, the auto-mount worked fine.
