Typing sudo only renders a bunch of usages.

you have to type the entire line as I explained. good luck.

I did this and after closing the terminal, in Machine > Guest Additions it read not detected so I removed the GA iso and reinstalled and got:

I guess you never did this.

OK, now I get :

apparently you still haven't done this.

I had done all that the second time. Finally the third time Session Information reads: Guest Additions 4.3.10 r93012

Before I ran the commands, I uninstalled the GA iso and went to Devices > Install Guest Additions to then executed the file at the terminal to run:

My only question now is how I can enable Lubuntu Keyboard shortcuts.

you don't install or enable them. that is a chart telling you what the built in shortcuts are.

I assumed that since the Windows key didn't work that none of the shortcuts did. Could I use the Windows key?

Yesterday, I ran the Software Updater and updated some things when VB crashed.

I have installed a new VB and VM of Lubuntu 14.04. I've also prepared and mounted the GA. But I can't install the GA with:

Code: Select all

sudo /media/luis/VBOXADDITIONS 4.3.12 93733

I get:

Code: Select all

VB0XADDITI0NS_4.3.12_93733- command not found

use this

Code: Select all

sudo /media/luis/VBOXADDITIONS_4.3.12_93733/VBoxLinuxAdditions.run

Linux is going to not be happy with the spaces. Wrap the command in quotes.

sudo "/media/luis/VBOXADDITIONS 4.3.12 93733/VBoxLinuxAdditions.run"

In fact if you look at the absolute path it has underscores, which the OP left off.

I didn't even notice. thanks. I need a nap I guess.

Actually, according to the picture that Advice Pro attached, it's not spaces, it's underscores "_", so the command should be:

Code: Select all

sudo /media/luis/VBOXADDITIONS_4.3.12_93733/VBoxLinuxAdditions.run
