Install Guest Additions On Linux Guest?

Post by king_kangaroo »

Hello, I have installed lubuntu and xubuntu into vms. I am trying to install guest additions on both, but am having trouble doing so as it seems you cannot just click on the installer, but need some command line work instead.

Does anyone know the proper procedure to get guest additions installed on either?

Thank you
