Scubaman, did you read the suggestions of the posts above yours? Seems there's a workaround presented a few times there...

I did, none of the suggestions helped. I ended up upgrading to 7.0 and that resolved it.

Re: Guest Additions not working properly on Ubuntu 22.04 guest
This issue still exists with Ubuntu 22.04 guest for Virtualbox 6.1.42 on MacOS host where guest additions installs but does not act properly with the linux window manager. Resizing the window fails and linux apps do not update their windows properly. I did ensure that I applied the Ubuntu updates before installing guest additions:
Installing Ubuntu 20.04 LTS guest on VB 6.1 and applying guest additions works as expected.
I cannot upgrade VB to 7.0 since I am running MacOS 13 (High Sierra) on an old machine.
Code: Select all
sudo apt update
sudo apt install build-essential dkms linux-headers-$(uname -r)
