Hi, maybe this is my problem, but looking for the forum I did not find it.
I have installed ubuntu server on my virtual machine and I can not use the mouse.
When I act with the console screen, it is disabled.
I have activated bidirectional clipboard sharing; also enable: drag and drop, bidirectional. All without success.
What am I doing wrong or overlooking?
Thanks, and forgive the spelling, I must use the translator.
I can not use the mouse in the console

Re: I can not use the mouse in the console
There is no mouse.
There is no clipboard.
There is no Drag'n'Drop.
You are using a server. Better learn how to type...

I forgot to mention that 5.2.x introduced an easier way to mimic keystrokes to the guest from the host. See viewtopic.php?f=9&t=80315&start=15#p414817 for more details.
