I guess you missed 5.0.2, 5.0.4, 5.0.6 and 5.0.8.

Sorry it was a typo, it should read 5.0.8-103449.

ahhh. no problem.

I'm having the same problem on Fedora 23 final release and Virtual Box 5.0.8.r103449

Hi
I've just installed Fedora 23 on VirtualBox 5 and I got the same issue. I could not do Auto-Resize but Drag-Drop feature is working. Problem is related to Pre-release Xorg package comes with Fedora 23 DVD
These are the steps how I solved the Guest Additions Auto-Resize problem :
1- sudo dnf update
it will install newer version of Xorg and other packages.
2- reboot
3- sudo dnf install gcc kernel-devel-$(uname -r)
4- Insert Guest Additions CD and Run the installer
5- reboot
Now, Auto-Resize, Drag-Drop and Clipboard sharing features should be working.

@Eniac06,

Post the guests log file ( as an attachment ). Right click on the guest in the Main Manager then click show log. Save and post as an attachment. Compress if it is too large to post.

@Eniac06: Which Guest Additions version are you using? I'm also running Fedora 23 with GA v5.0.10 and I'm able to do auto resize and mount shared folders. Make sure that you have the latest GA installed.

I'm going to bump this up as I was having an issue with it.

Currently using VB 5.0.14 on a Debian 8 host with Fedora (non-beta) 23 as the guest. I followed all suggestions and it seems that you have to

1. install gcc
2. run guest additions
3. install kernal guest additions says it needs
4. update all of Fedora
5. install guest additions again

It's now working for me in full screen mode.
