Selected Devices | ""Install guest additions."" Nothing happened. To get them installed, I needed to manually mount the VBoxGuestAdditions.iso, explore the ""CD"" and double click on the appropriate exe. Perhaps the program is looking in the wrong place for VBoxGuestAdditions.iso? The manual (http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch04.html) says it is usually in /opt/VirtualBox, but the Debian packages have it in /usr/share/virtualbox. Or perhaps it's autorun related or maybe I had another ISO mounted already? http://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/8211 http://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/6894 If so, the code could be more robust to account for such situations. Or perhaps it's just a matter of updating the manual?" defect closed guest additions VirtualBox 4.1.2 obsolete Windows Linux
