Hi guys, I run Mint 15 (Cinnamon) in Virtualbox (4.3.2) with a Windows 7 host. Its been stable for months but suddenly, about half the time I start it the bottom menu bar is missing. No errors, desktop comes up and shortcuts on the desktop work but the bottom bar is just gone. Vbox bar is there, Mint menu bar isn't. Have to restart Mint until it comes up, sometimes first time, sometimes it takes 5 or 6 tries. Everything is up to date on Windows, Mint, and Virtualbox. Latest Guest Additions are installed.
Appreciate any ideas!

I can't give you a fix but I do know when this happens I use the host+delete toggle to log off and then back in. Usually works the first time.

Having the same problem now with a Debian guest. Virtualbox and guest additions are latest version.
