For as long as I can remember there has been a problem with using the mouse on Windows extended displays. Even with mouse integration turned off (with it on there is no cursor at all, ever) the cursor won't stay in the box. It semi-randomly jumps out of the window to a normal windows cursor making navigation within it impossible. Do I have a configuration problem, is it not fixable or is there simply no interest in fixing it?

Using 4.2.6

Version 4.6.2 on Windows 7 64-bit. Opened "Install Guest Additions" but nothing would install. The problem exists regardless of the guest but at the moment I'm running a Chrome OS image from:

Log attached.

Sorry to say this is not a supported guest. Can you try one of the supported guests and see if it works? If not then post the log file for that.

Yeah, Ubuntu works fine. It never occurred to me that only sanctioned systems would work correctly. Sad, that.

Guest additions are really touchy and you picked the worst to try to get them to work in. ChromOS is not even real yet and the hacked versions are missing a lot of important code.
