[Pkg-virtualbox-devel] Bug#450764: virtualbox-ose: Guest additions not working on a Fedora 8 guest

[Julien Valroff]

Package: virtualbox-ose
Version: 1.5.2-dfsg-2
Severity: normal

Hi,

I have upgraded my Fedora virtual machine to the latest release (Fedora 8) and while
the guest additions modules build fine and seems to load ok, I don't have the features
provided by the guest additions (automatic mouse grabbing, clipboard sharing, shared
folders etc.).

Maybe this bug should be reported against Fedora, but I see in the changelog of latest
1.5.2 release:
	* VMM: fixed issues with Fedora 8 guests

Cheers,
Julien
