[Bug 1574687] Re: VBoxClient failed to connect to the VirtualBox Kernel Service

2016-04-27 Thread LocutusOfBorg
yes, it is a dependency, but alternative to the kernel module.
the reason is: why the kernel module from src:linux doesn't work?

installing it might work, but it is an alternative way to do the same
stuff, so I would appreciate to understand why the kernel modules aren't
working.

can you please remove it, and try some lsmod to see if the linux modules are 
loaded or not?
thanks

Yup, that was the problem.

Works now, no errror messages, even the login screen is enlarged, and
copy-paste working.

As far as I remember it was enough to install tue virtualbox-guest-utils
in earlier releases. Based on my notes that's what I dead with earlier
releases. And I've never seen these error messages before, although I'm
using ubunt in virtualbox for at least 6 oder 7 years.

I'd proprose to add a dependency.

regards

virtualbox-guest-dkms was not installed. I'll just install it.


Wasn't this once in the dependencies of virtualbox-guest-utils?

I just tried that.

1. enabled the proposed repository
2. installed new linux-image-generic and got 4.4.0-22  (before I had 4.4.0-21). 
3. reboot

result:

+ The screen now resizes to full screen  (*after* login, the login
screen itself is still small).

- The error messages still appear (although I am not sure whether it
generates new error messages or just displays the old ones, not sure
from which log file it takes them).

- copy/paste between host and guest still does not work (although
enabled in the config for that guest).
