Public bug reported:
I have enabled shared clipboard (bidirectional) and installed
virtualbox-guest-dkms, but even after rebooting shared clipboard isn't
working. Linux headers are installed for the kernel image I'm running
(4.4.0-53-generic).
If I do
$ VBoxClient --clipboard
in the host a system message says:
Failed to connect to the VirtualBox kernel service,
rc=VERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND
The host is xenial and virtualbox-guest-dkms is version 5.0.24-dfsg-
0ubuntu1.16.04.1. The guest is precise freshly installed. I have tried
both Terminal and Text Editor in the virtual machine to paste.
